Note: any donation requested by Change.org is NOT for the Save Fort Rock Trails project, and is funding that goes to Change.org. Donations to the Save Fort Rock Trails Project can be made here.

Engage with your towns

We are requesting the towns of Newfields and Exeter to provide funding toward the land purchase through town bonds, while additional funding will be raised through state and federal grants and philanthropic donations. Town bonds must be voter approved with a 3/5 majority. Join us in petitioning the towns to put funding for this important project on the ballot in 2024, and vote to support it!

The Trust for Public Land (TPL), the towns of Newfields and Exeter, and other local partners will hold a series of public meetings in 2023 and 2024 to ensure that local voices are heard and uplifted during the planning process, and to gather input on the uses and management of the Community Forest. Please reach out to Project Manager, Lynnette Batt (contact info below) for more information.
