Now we can get to work

To the editor,

Thanks to all of you and the island community, SCCF has reached the goal for the acquisition and initial restoration of the historic Bailey homestead.

We are so grateful to everyone who supported this campaign. Gift amounts ranged from $5 to $1 million, and it took every single donation to help us reach our goal.

With donations from almost 1,400 families, islanders have sent a strong signal that they still support the preservation of wildlife habitat on the islands.

Now we can begin to get to work on the trail and restoration of the habitat and the historical home.

Watch for news about a donor celebration party in the fall. We couldn’t be happier!
