Anonymous Family Foundation Donates $30K
An anonymous family foundation has donated $30,000 toward the Mt. Major/Belknaps campaign. The family has been hiking in New Hampshire for generations, and they are very familiar with the Belknaps Range and Mt. Major trails. They also understand how much trail maintenance is needed for this popular hiking area, and that it is dependent on the Forest Society and Lakes Region Conservation Trust's ability to acquire ownership and permanent protection of the properties and the trails.

Another $20K Closer Thanks to the Moose Plate Program
When you pass someone with the New Hampshire Moose license plate on their car or truck, give them a wave and a thank you for supporting land conservation and cultural heritage around the state. Today we learned that the NH State Conservation Committee granted $20,000 toward the Everybody Hikes Mount Major campaign, bringing us that much closer to our goal of protecting key parcels in the Belknap Mountain Range.
