I can't remember a more beautiful Memorial Day weekend than this year! It was the perfect kick-off to summer with picturesque days spent enjoyed our local parks, beaches, trails and farms. As nature explodes with bounty and beauty, we celebrate our open spaces in June to acknowledge how important they are to our quality of life here in Monmouth County. If you are taking the time to read this email, chances are you agree and I implore you to consider a donation to help us keep preserving our parks and open spaces for generations to come.

Sincerely,

William D. Kastning, AICP
Executive Director

P.S. A big thank you to everyone who supported our Hops and Grapes event and Garden Tour that took place in May. I really enjoyed seeing and chatting with so many of you. Your generosity is very much appreciated!
