Land Trust Efforts To Be Applauded

Residents of Otsego County may take its breathtaking vistas—including the county’s forested hillsides, farmed fields and meandering waterways—for granted. I applaud the visionary efforts to preserve the integrity of the former site of Camp Henderson by the Otsego Land Trust. The collaboration between OLT, Senator Oberacker, the NYSDEC and the NYSOPRHP, and a dedicated group of residents, will help to protect an important swath of local land in perpetuity. I would like to thank all the people involved in this effort for not taking the future stewardship of the Crumhorn Lake site for granted, and for working tirelessly to achieve its protection.
