Mission and Program Overview

Mission

To promote and maintain public open spaces in the areas in proximity to the seeking river, specifically including Blackstone Park and the open space which divides Blackstone Boulevard; and to carry on any other activity that may be lawfully carried on by a corporation formed under the Rhode Island Nonprofit Corporation act as may be in effect from time to time.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
At the Blackstone Park Conservation District, a new Forest Management Plan was completed by a certified Forester, with grant support from National Resources Conservation Service. Fencing around the trails was expanded. New maps and safety signs were added. New haybales were installed, to prevent soil erosion.$1,373$16,263
Maintenance and improvements at Blackstone Boulevard: In November, volunteers planted 700 daffodil bulbs in two lawn areas .This was the third daffodil planting project in as many years. A new "Boulevard Monitor" was contracted to help inventory all the Boulevard's trees, along with monitoring newer trees for watering and care issues. In early summer, over 30 small trees were marked with pink or orange for special care. Grass was cleared from around them and high-quality mulch was added to suppress weeds and hold moisture. In the summer, contractors watered young trees. In the fall, contractors planted and cared for five new trees.$0$10,945
A total of 25 free events and concerts for the community took place at Blackstone Park. They included the monthly educational series "Art and Science at the Park", a Moon Rise Celebration, two RiverRides, guided shoreline walks, and birding. A wide range of musical genres and styles were performed at the concerts, including Classical Indian instrumental and vocal music, original songs composed in the 1980's, recent compositions, and improvised electronic music.$0$8,256
The popular Trolley Shelter summer concerts on the Boulevard returned with five shows played by favorite artists and some newcomers. The concerts were well attended with first-time spectators and "regulars". It was wonderful to see a mix of individuals, friends, and families enjoying the concerts, some bringing picnic baskets and blankets to relax and enjoy the performance.$0$8,158
The Spirit of Youth statue, at Blackstone Boulevard Park near Clarendon Street, now has a new sheen. An expert contractor evaluated the statue's condition, then thoroughly cleaned, touched up at a few rough spots, and rewaxed the bronze.$0$7,800
We are working to re-design the south end of Blackstone Boulevard to better manage stormwater while improving safety and park aesthetics. As part of a coalition of environmental organizations and with support from City agencies, we participated in extensive community outreach and are making progress on a new design. New signs have helped communicate our plans to the community. We solicited community input through our updated website and three events.$0$2,039
