For me, this was a wonderful opportunity to act upon a life-long passion for parks, recreation, and land conservation. I could not wait to roll up my sleeves and get to work fulfilling the agency's mission. Since I have been here, I have been impressed by the incredible enthusiasm, dedication, experience, and expertise of DCR staff, all across the Commonwealth, as well as the committed support of our multitude of public and private partners who share a belief in the importance of what we do. The work that is done at DCR significantly affects the quality of life of Massachusetts residents and visitors on a daily basis. From Cape Cod to the Berkshires, our agency's staff act to protect our natural and cuJtural resources, enrich the recreational opportunities that are available for the public's enjoyment, and improve the many properties and infrastructure under DCR's care. Their many accomplishments in these areas directly contribute to people's health and well-b~ing, knowledge of the surrounding world and entironment, sense of community and belonging, and to our state's economy as well. The progress that DCR has made has been dependent not only on the efforts of our statewide staff and support of our DCR Stewardship Council, but on the strength of our agency's connections with our par~ers - park visitors, friends groups, and volunteers, community non-profit organizations, private corporations, and local and state government officials.
