Got an invite to be on the Board of Trustees for The Hazel Farm Property Foundation and today was our first meeting. I am very honored to be on this board.
The task of the board is to use the property and funds that Mr. Richard (Dick) Hazel and his wife Pat Hazel left to create a place where kids of all ages, especially youth, of all races and socio-economic backgrounds can experience the great outdoors and all that it offers. We are really in the begining stages of helping Dick's vision bloom and I think it will be exciting to see what it becomes. The property is about 500 acres of trees, foodplots (for the wildlife), ponds, nature trails, a residence, and a very nice building that serves as a Meeting Place. It is open to groups like, churches, boy scouts, girl scouts, 4-H, wildlife groups, etc.
Looking forward to seeing this great thing become a reality and bloom in Eden, MD!
