BPC 2024 Annual Appeal

"Volunteerism is the voice of the people put into action.
These actions shape and mold the present into a future of which we can all be proud."
- Helen Dyer

Membership and volunteerism do matter, and our voices matter, too. Our mission to protect and improve our ponds demands attention to learning through science. It also means using our voice to take this knowledge to advocate for changes necessary to safeguard our freshwater resources. That is not always easy but is paramount to leaving behind a Brewster of which we can be proud. 

Let’s use our voice and have thoughtful, honest and respectful conversation on how to protect our environment. With your continued support, our voice and advocacy will continue. Your annual membership renewal is a testament to your decision to protect our ponds.

We are off to a good start with our 2024 annual appeal, but still have a long way to go. Let’s hit our member and renewal goals of 70% this year! In 2024, the BPC will:

• ​​Advocate for the town to adopt and implement a comprehensive wastewater management plan.
• Educate residents on how they can manage their home wastewater.
• Continue our Pond Education programs for adults and children.
• Continue our Cyanobacteria Monitoring program to protect public health.
• Continue our fun and educational members’ events.

​
The Membership Team looks forward to reaching out to you during our "call-out" period beginning in January. Having a two-way conversation allows us to get your input and answer any questions that you may have out our plans and programs. 

The BPC board hopes you will take a moment to donate by using the "Donate" button below. Please e-mail any comments, ideas, or questions to [email protected] with the subject title "2024 Appeal." The Membership Team will answer all questions and ideas submitted.

Thank you for your support!
