Projects

Scarborough Land Conservation Trust projects are primarily related to land stewardship: property monitoring, construction and maintenance of trails, construction of trail bridges, benches, signs and kiosks. Volunteers and community groups such as the Boy Scouts, Kiwanis Club, Key Club, and the Maine Conservation Corps have been instrumental to the success of these activities. These projects are described in our "Lands" and "Trails" pages.

When reports documenting the activities and interests of the Land Trust become available we will be posting them here.
