OUR MISSION <br />

At <strong>Westchester</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Trust</strong>, our mission<br />

is clear and simple: We preserve land in partnership<br />

with private property owners. We help communities<br />

create new parks and preserves. And we work to foster<br />

sound land use planning.<br />

We think our accomplishments show that we've been true to<br />

our mission.<br />

From our founding in 1988, we have protected 4,464 acres in 25 communities<br />

- 2,825 acres in conservation easements, 1,123 acres in new<br />

public parks and preserves, and 516 acres in preserves that we own.<br />

We've highlighted some of our 20<strong>06</strong> successes in this annual<br />

report, and illustrated them with photographs by Christian<br />

<strong>Westchester</strong> <strong>Land</strong><br />

<strong>Trust</strong> holds 144<br />

conservation easements<br />

and owns<br />

30 preserves.<br />

Harder. We hope you enjoy the results.<br />

~ Sam Pryor, Chairman<br />
