Special Events
Throughout the year, ALT offers a series of events for our donors, landowners and other concerned members of the community to celebrate our successes and raise funds to support future conservation projects.
| July 9th: Aquidneck Land Trust Golf Tournament Held each year at the Newport National Golf Club, this summertime fundraiser brings golfers together for a memorable day of play on a beautiful ALT-conserved property. The tournament kicks off with a box lunch and wraps up with a cocktail reception, great raffle prizes, and tournament awards. July 28th: Fiesta Verde Summer Party This annual fundraiser has become one of the most-anticipated summer bashes on Aquidneck Island. A cocktail reception is followed by dinner, music, dancing, a raffle, and a spirited silent auction of artwork, jewelry, gifts and get-away packages. Our 2011 Fiesta Verde was held on Saturday, July 23 on the back lawns of Miramar, Ocean View and Rock Cliff, overlooking the Cliff Walk. This years Fiesta Verde will be held on an ALT conserved property TBA later. November 3rd: Race for Open Space 5K Run & Walk This scenic, cross-country 5-kilometer race on ALT’s Sakonnet Greenway Trail is a unique and exciting addition to the local race circuit. Though not allowed in the running category, leashed dogs and strollers are welcome in the walking category of the race. Entry fee is $20 with proceeds from the race directed towards further construction and maintenance of the Sakonnet Greenway Trail, the largest nature trail on Aquidneck Island.
