Dear Mary Jane,
I just wanted to reach out and thank you and the Evergreen Garden Club for your generous gift of $830 this July 8th. It is always very meaningful, but especially so in these trying times, to have the club's support.
The park does indeed face all the challenges you mentioned, and we will do our best to steward your club's generosity wisely to make a difference in stopping invasives and mitigating the effects of visitor carelessness.
Please also extend the Conservancy's warmest thanks to Jane Dana and Ellen Thrasher.
I hope you are able to make it out and enjoy the park on this sunny but relatively cool day!
Jon
