About the Liberty Lands Committee
The Liberty Lands Committee oversees the maintenance, preservation, and improvements to the community park. A small steering committee meets monthly to review all park activities, which typically include: organization of volunteers, planning workdays and cleanups, playground maintenance, community garden maintenance, organization of park events, management of park use, fundraising planning, grant management, legal issues affecting the property, materials and equipment procurement, capital improvements, long-term planning, and management of the roughly $20,000 annual operating budget.
Steering committee members also represent the park at the local and national level as advocates for open space issues. De facto subcommittees manage issues specific to the community garden, the playground, and yearly events such as the music festivals and fall festival. Volunteers are welcomed at all levels of participation from steering committee membership to attendance at workdays.
