Sheriff's Meadow Welcomes New Exec Director

Nelson Sigelman reports that the Board of Directors of the Sheriff's Meadow Foundation on Martha’s Vineyard officially welcomed the new executive director, Adam Moore. Mr. Moore began his tenure in May but has already had the unfortunate task of addressing the “strip mining” of plants from the Foundation’s properties for the benefit of a wealthy West Tisbury landowner.

Ironically, Richard J. Lazarus, a professor and environmental lawyer, is scheduled to speak about "Environmental Law, Climate Change and the New Administration," at the Foundation's Summer Gathering & Dinner on July 21, 2008.
