2009 Wildlife Photos
Unable
to make it to the Trust's 2009 Annual Meeting in November? Then you
missed the fabulous wildlife slideshow! The photos were all submitted
by Westford residents and capture scenes of our wonderful flora and
fauna.

Everyday Wilderness
 How many of you have a white pine growing in your yard or your neighborhood? I would be willing to guess that all of us do. White pines are so common in Westford that we hardly pay attention to them, unless they seem to blocking our view of something else. Continued
Conservation Trustee Award
The Trust awarded the Conservation Trustee Award
for 2009 to Emily Teller. Emily is
currently involved as Westford Director and Secretary for the Friends
of the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail,
Inc., an all-volunteer group which has worked in partnership with
state and local governments toward completion of the newly-opened
rail trail in Westford. Phase I, which runs 6.8 miles, beginning
at Cross Point in
Lowell and continuing through Chelmsford and Westford, was completed
in August 2009. Emily also served
as Media Coordinator for the Stop Wal-Mart group in 1993, and was
appointed by the Selectmen to serve on
the Drew Farms Committee which protected the "gateway to Westford" land
from being developed.
