Two forested properties adjacent to the Southern Berkshire Regional School District campus contain trails through lovely uplands and wetlands that students have unofficially used for years. SLT is conserving these properties to secure a rare opportunity for students to safely walk to school and to provide a wonderful walking route for seniors and others who either are not able to do the more strenuous hiking that typifies the recreational opportunities in the area or are just looking for a more leisurely walk in the woods. The properties will be available as outdoor classrooms and we hope to eventually link these trails together and to the school's current interpretive nature trail. Initially we will be improving the footbridge on the former Cosgriff property and subsequently developing a small unpaved parking area on Salisbury Road. SLT is raising funds from the community and other sources to purchase and make improvements to one property and place a conservation restriction on the other to create a quality recreational opportunity for all Sheffield residents.
