DCR Celebrates Partners, Including MBPs

Sen. Boncore, Rep. Livingstone, DCR Comm. Roy &Magazine Beach Partners’ board members Cathie Zusy, Peter Klinefelter and Brian Conway at yesterday’s State House event

January 11 at the State House, Magazine Beach Partners was honored, along with volunteer groups from across Massachusetts, for partnering with DCR. DCR awarded us with Partnership Matching Funds to mount interpretative signs at the park and build an outlook, for river viewing. DCR matched Cambridge CPA funds 2:1 for the signs and community dollars (raised by the MB Comm. of the CNA and MBPs and donated by YOU) 2:1 for the outlook. Many thanks to all who have contributed. DCR can’t make much needed improvements at the park without us!

2018 will be a big year at Magazine Beach as we move from planning to implementing Phase 2. The canoe/kayak launch and outlook is our first “little” project. Also in 2018, we’ll be celebrating the 200^th anniversary of the Powder Magazine. Information about that to come…
