 New Donation Boxes 

  

The Marginal Way Preservation Fund replaced worn out donation boxes with aluminum receptacles in Perkins Cove and on Shore Road at the entrance to the Marginal Way. 

 

The Molly Trolley Corporation in Wells designed the new boxes.

 Please help us fill this box!

 

We hope you will fill these new boxes with frequent donations.  

 

We thank our generous donation box sponsor, Agnes Pompa, of Saratoga Springs, New York, who has a very big heart!

Visitors Turned Marginal Way Weed Warriors

Tourists Spence Wildman (left) of Louisville, Kentucky and Kurt Schroeder of Plymouth, Connecticut were voluntarily  pressed into service weeding near the Briar Bank access path in preparation for re-mulching.  Peter Griswold (center), Vice President of the Marginal Way Preservation Fund, is a regular 'weed warrior.'  Thank you for all your hard work!
