Hi Nicci, Glad to see this group formed. The "Arthur Morency Woods" is well worth the time and effort from all of you. Arthur Morency was a real person who lived in Natick then moved to Framingham (as the story goes according to Tom Mahoney). As a suggestion - if possible - see if Rob McCarthy of the ConCom would be interested in serving as the ConCom rep on this subcommittee. He is a land manager for MDC and may even have access to sample stewardship agreements. Just a thought!
