[Hvcatskillcewg] FW: Next HV/Catskill Conservation Easement Working Group Meeting- Potential dates!

[David Diaz]

Hello Katrina,

My name is David Diaz and I'm the conservation easement manager for Scenic
Hudson.  There's a group called the Hudson Valley/Catskill Region
Conservation Easement Working Group.  We've had regular meetings over the
last two years focusing mostly on conservation easement management,
drafting, etc. 

Our next meeting is coming up at the end of February.  Please see the email
below for more info.

I spoke with someone (not Andy) at your organization, they recommended I add
you to our group's listserve.  The address for the listserve is
hvcatskillcewg at lists.ltanet.org

Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.
