EMERALD NECKLACE PARTY
Adriana Sassoon, Tonya Mezrick , Sinesia
The Emerald Necklace Conservancy was created to protect, restore, maintain and promote the landscape, waterways and parkways of the Emerald Necklace park system as special places for people to visit and enjoy.
The Conservancy’s programs and funding support and complement initiatives by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, City of Boston and Town of Brookline who began the Necklace’s restoration in the 1980s.
Our programs focus on:
- parks restoration and maintenance
- public education including presentations, exhibits and publications
- constituency-building and park advocacy
- volunteer and other activities which promote parks stewardship
- improvement of public access to and through the park system, among other activities.
A public-private partnership, the Conservancy was formed in 1996 and incorporated in 1998 as a non-profit organization. Our organization brings together government, business, residential and institutional representatives, community leaders and organizations, and environmental and park advocates in support of the Olmsted legacy. President Julie Crockford and the staff work closely with the Board of Directors, the Park Overseers (representing all of the parks and friends groups within the Emerald Necklace), the Stewardship Council, and hundreds of volunteers to accomplish our mission.
Join us in the continued renewal of an historic landscape, and an environmental and cultural treasure that is:
- a place to join together in celebration
- a backyard for our children
- a special wildlife habitat
- a boost to our area’s economy
- a source of serenity and renewal

*Beautiful flowers and great food. I have to confess the Police Horses took my attention. They were the Starlight of the event for me. We have to support the future of Horses, by keeping the Emerald Necklace Alive. The Emerald Necklace was created to protect, restore, maintain and promote the landscape, waterways and parkways but the most important are the Bridle Paths. Support the Emerald Necklace Conservancy and ensure that the landscape, Bridle Paths and waterways are maintained for years to come.
Too much, clutter all I could see was Hats. All together Visual Pollution. Please Ladies. “Less is more” a basic phrase.

Valuable information. Lucky me I found your web site by accident, and I am shocked why this accident did not happened earlier! I bookmarked it.
Why was the Bush Administration blamed for the sub prime mess when according to the New York Times it was the Clinton Administration that began pressuirng Banks to make the NINJA loans available. The Clinton folks went so far as to threaten fines and other legal actions if banks did not make the loans to unqualifeid buyers as part of the Community Redevelopment Act. Here is a qoute from the New York Times story. See BelowA New York Times article, Fannie Mae Eases Credit To Aid Mortgage Lending (Sept. 30, 1999), reported, Fannie Mae, the nations biggest underwriter of home mortgages, has been under increasing pressure from the Clinton administration to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate income people. The pressure was the 1977 Community Reinvestment Act that was beefed up during the Clinton administration. It required banks to make high-risk loans they would not have otherwise made. Failure to comply meant fines and difficulty in getting approval for mergers and branch expansion.
