BREAKING NEWS: Saved!! With Your Help

Save Our Shores Gloucester has closed on the property at 166-178 Atlantic Road!

The next step will be to place a conservation restriction on the land that will protect it and preserve it in perpetuity for the benefit of all forever.

Save Our Shores Gloucester thanks all of those who provided financial support, contributed time to attend meetings and donated supplies and materials to make this effort so successful.

On Friday, May 6, a ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place at the site to celebrate victory over development along the Back Shore, a spot revered by so many people from Gloucester, and from many places around the globe.

Thanks to Marilyn Hyde, realtor extraordinaire, for her help in securing this property.

We look forward to seeing you on May 6. Details to follow.

BREAKING NEWS: SAVE OUR SHORES HAS RAISED $84,000.00!!!

To our devoted supporters:

Just $16,000 more needed!!

We are excited to be so near our goal of $100,000 needed to purchase four parcels of land on Atlantic Road, and pay for legal and closing costs.

As of today, we estimate our total donations and pledges at $84,000.

A short time ago, one of the most beautiful places in New England was threatened with massive construction and irretrievable damage. We’re just as amazed as each of you that this prized land and viewscape will belong to all of us.  Without the support of each and every one of our more than 400 donors, this would not be possible.

Thank you for your continued support and for showing up at all of those meetings.
