WILTON – Foothills Land Conservancy will meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday, June 16, in the Wilton Academy Hill School cafeteria. The theme will be a party to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Wilson Lake headwaters land acquisition.

There will be a business meeting with election of board members and officers, along with the final vote on proposed bylaws amendments. As previously considered at a special membership meeting, the proposed changes correct oversights in the original document and address quorum rules.

After the meeting, the group will celebrate the purchase of the Wilson Lake headwaters property 10 years ago. Anyone with memories of the effort is encouraged to come and share them. Refreshments will be provided and pictures of the conservation area will be on display. Board members will be available to provide information about the headwaters land activities and trails.

The Foothills Land Conservancy was founded in 1997 and acquired the 238-acre parcel of land in Wilton on June 15, 1999. In 2001, the organization conveyed a conservation easement to the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, which insures that the property will remain forever in its primarily undeveloped condition, protects the wildlife habitat resources and water quality, and preserves traditional public uses of the property.

In celebration of the tenth anniversary of the purchase, the group is planning a number of nature-related events to take place on the property.

The meeting and celebration are open to the public and new members are welcome. Fore more information, contact Nancy Prince at 645-4027.
