ALT Annual Fund – A New Challenge!
A generous anonymous donor has offered to MATCH new annual fund gifts and memberships! How does your gift qualify? Any gift that is larger than your last annual fund gift qualifies…as does any gift or membership from a new donor. Please help us reach the full $30,000 challenge. Thank you!
Join us on Saturday, July 20, for Enchanted Summer, our biggest event of the year! Wonderful music, delicious food, and plenty of dancing…all overlooking the historic Cliff Walk, on the lawns of three beautiful Bellevue Avenue homes (Miramar, Ocean View and Rock Cliff). Please register today!
ALT has placed a 6.20-acre property near Third Beach Road in Middletown under conservation easement. Local resident Sandra Allen donated the easement to the land trust. The property will remain private land but is protected forever from development, and will be used for agriculture and wildlife habitat.
Join us on Tuesday, November 12, for our next Full Moon Walk! We will meet at a conserved property and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature under a full autumn moon. Dress warmly and bring a flashlight. Location and exact time to be announced; register here.
Register now for the 2019 ALT Golf Tournament at Newport National Golf Club, the #1 public course in New England! Monday, June 17. Gifts, prizes, lunch, cocktail reception. All are welcome!
Join us for an insider’s look at our favorite conserved properties! We hop on a vintage trolley, tour several ALT-conserved sites, enjoy a delicious wine and cheese break at Sweet Berry Farm, and return to ALT. Register here for the Sept. 25 tour.
Looking for a walk, run, or hike on a nature trail? ALT offers three trail systems, spread over dozens of conserved properties. The longest trail is the Sakonnet Greenway Trail, which is over 10 miles long! Shorter trails are easily accessible at Spruce Acres and Oakland Forest. See you on the trail!
