The Association strives to promote conservation and a healthy ecosystem within the boundaries of the ponds and adjoining watershed by:

• Promoting continuing partnerships with organizations that share common ecological values and goals;

• Promoting actions that ensure the healthy environment of the ponds;

• Respecting the interests of property owners by providing a conduit for member concerns while working cooperatively with landowners, visitors and compatible organizations in promoting the safe enjoyment of our surrounding woodlands and cherished ponds.
