In lieu of the plant sale the Trust will be holding an Ice Cream Social and Raffle at john Bator Park on September 28th from 12 to 2 PM. Tickets for the raffle prizes are available at Easthampton Savings bank where they are on display. Tickets are $1.00 each or 6 for $5.00.
At the social there will be free ice cream with a non dairy alternative available as well. Come by and say hi and find out what the trust is up to.
Recently it was discovered that a memorial bench near the Manhan River was missing. Pascommuck board members scouted the area to see if it was dumped in the river or carried elsewhere. Considering the weight of the bench it would have taken a group of people to move it. The Dwyer area has been the scene of other vandalism as there was painted defacement on some trees awhile back that needed to be removed.
If anyone has any information regarding this bench please contact us here.
The last guided walk of 2025 will be held at the Dwyer Conservation area starting at 10 AM. The walk will be led by John Bator and Tom Lautzenheiser. Cars may be parked along Terrace View.
Hope to see you there!
PCT will have a table at the Sunday, August 31st Farmer’s Market at the City Hall complex. Come by to say hi and see what the Trust is working on these days!
