OXFORD — The public is cordially invited to attend Oxford County Soil & Water Conservation District’s Annual Meeting and Luncheon on Saturday, Jan. 25, 2025 (snow date Feb. 1) at the Oxford Rec Center in Oxford. The Annual Meeting celebrates the accomplishments of the district, its volunteers, and its community partners over the past year.
It is also an opportunity for the public to come and see what it does in the community, as well as enjoy a good meal and learn something new. Beginning at 12:30 p.m., there will be time for visiting, followed by a lunch of crowd-favorite comfort foods, entertainment, and awards.
All proceeds from this event go towards supporting our programs, including providing environmental education opportunities to families and protecting clean water and healthy soil in Oxford County.
The speaker for the afternoon will be Private Lands Wildlife Biologist Joseph Roy, with the ME Dept. of Inland Fish and Wildlife. Joe will be giving a presentation on the basics of wildlife habitat.
