Members, Friends and Neighbors,
Naromi has just ended our fiscal year. We have had more than 500 people participate in 16 events

throughout the year, we made great strides towards achieving accreditation, we completed an on-site inspection on each and every property we own or hold a conservation easement on, and we have worked closely with our neighbors, colleagues and Sherman landowners to achieve our conservation goals. Check out our Annual Report online and attend our Annual Meeting to learn more about what Naromi is doing to protect Sherman's natural resources.

JCC Program

 Naromi joined the JCC in Sherman to offer a six-week after school program for kids in 2nd grade through 8th.  The kids were lucky to have visit with a turtle expert, a wildlife rehabilitator, go on a hike in Naromi's Mallory Preserve and all kinds of other fun activities.  

Thank you to the JCC, John Foley, Wildlife-Line, Marge Josephson, and especially to Chris Jellen for organizing this program on Naromi's behalf.
