Special Places
Welcome to Special Places
Welcome to the inaugural online issue of Special Places. This quarterly publication exclusively for Trustees Members is designed to help you discover and enjoy Trustees special places, find programs and events, and learn about the latest Trustees news and information.
Message from the Outgoing President
What a summer we have underway here at The Trustees: foggy, soggy and, then – hooray! – sunny! Whatever the weather, we offer so many ways for you to create lasting memories with your loved ones.

Tips for the Perfect Picnic
Summer is in full swing and it’s prime time for picnicking. Our special places offer something for everyone looking to dine alfresco this season.
To help you pack the perfect basket, we asked the culinary experts at our farms for some suggestions.
Staff Picnic Favorites
We asked Trustees staff, and property experts, to tell us their favorite Trustees picnic spots. You’ll find some of your favorites along with, perhaps, some undiscovered gems.
Events Curated for our Members
We’ve compiled some summer highlighted events for our Members and also created a downloadable events calendar for you to print.
A Day in the Life of the Mobile Adventures Team
We asked Victoria Abbott Riccardi to spend the day with the Trustees Mobile Adventures team. Victoria joined the team in May in New Bedford for one of their in-demand pop-up events.
News From Across the State
In this issue, we welcome our new President & CEO, highlight the important work our team and partners are doing to preserve and protect the 1,200 acres of Hale Education land in Dover and Westwood, and share more information on the premiere of our new documentary Coskata-Coatue: A Refuge on the Edge.
