FROM: Joe Gardner, Outings Chair, Sierra Club Hudson-Mohawk Group:
The Sierra Club Atlantic Chapter, Catskill 3500 Club, Adirondack Mountain Club, New York New Jersey Trail Conference and other organizations will continue to urge their members to support Save the Mountain. While a rally planned at Belleayre on September 27 did not receive DEC OK we will observe National Public Lands Day individually and appropriately.
CANCELED - did not receive permit
September 27 - National Public Lands Day
PUBLIC LANDS IN PUBLIC HANDS
Save Belleayre Mountain!
National Public Lands Day began in 1994 with three federal agencies and 700 volunteers. Last year nearly 110,000 volunteers worked in 1,300 locations and in every state. Now, 8 federal agencies and many state and local lands participate in this annual day of caring for shared lands. National Public Lands Day keeps the promise of the Civilian Conservation Corps, the "tree army" that worked from 1933-42 to preserve and protect America's natural heritage.
This annual event:
• Educates Americans about critical environmental and natural resources issues and the need for shared stewardship of these valued, irreplaceable lands;
• Builds partnerships between the public sector and the local community based upon mutual interests in the enhancement and restoration of America's public lands;
• Improves public lands for outdoor recreation, with volunteers assisting land managers in hands-on work.
