Shirley's Special Places, Open Spaces, and Recreation Lands Shirley’s Special Places, Open Spaces, and Recreation Lands: A Plan for 2015-2021 Longley Acres Conservation Area, Shirley, Massachusetts December, 2017, Shirley Open Space and Recreation Plan Committee [This Page Left Blank Intentionally] ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Shirley’s Special Places, Open Spaces, and Recreation Lands: A Plan for 2015-2021 replaces the town’s previous open space and recreation plan, which was in effect from 1996- 2001. The Open Space and Recreation Plan Committee (OSRPC) acknowledges and appreciates the efforts of former members of the Shirley Conservation Commission, previous Conservation Commission Agents, and the many members of the public who in March, 2003, completed a preliminary draft of An Open Space and Recreation Plan for the Town of Shirley, 2003-2008. Later, a new 2011/2014 DRAFT Open Space and Recreation Plan for Shirley, upon which this final revised plan drew heavily, was prepared by graduate students Emily Lubahn, Zach Mermel, and Elaine Williamson, from the Conway School of Landscape Design in Easthampton, MA. Some of the text, many of the recommendations, and a number of the maps and photographs from the draft plan are incorporated into the final version. Former Shirley Conservation Agent Nadia Madden, Conservation Commission members, and Shirley residents worked with the Conway School students in preparing the draft OSRP, and provided photos (see Appendix K). The Shirley Open Space and Recreation Plan Committee thanks the Conway students for their work on the Draft OSRP. Many people assisted the current OSRPC in developing the final revised plan. In addition to those who contributed to the draft plans noted above, we wish to thank the following individuals for their help in providing information, reviewing data, contributing editorial comments, and/or providing technical assistance to us as we completed the revision of the 2011-2014 draft.

  • Early History of Thoroughbred Horses in Virginia (1730-1865)
    Early History of Thoroughbred Horses in Virginia (1730-1865) Old Capitol at Williamsburg with Guests shown on Horseback and in a Horse-drawn Carriage Virginia History Series #11-08 © 2008 First Horse Races in North America/Virginia (1665/1674) The first race-course in North America was built on the Salisbury Plains (now known as the Hempstead Plains) of Long Island, New York in 1665. The present site of Belmont Park is on the Western edge of the Hempstead Plains. In 1665, the first horse racing meet in North America was held at this race-course called “Newmarket” after the famous track in England. These early races were match events between two or three horses and were run in heats at a distance of 3 or 4 miles; a horse had to complete in at least two heats to be judged the winner. By the mid-18th century, single, "dash" races of a mile or so were the norm. Virginia's partnership with horses began back in 1610 with the arrival of the first horses to the Virginia colonies. Forward thinking Virginia colonists began to improve upon the speed of these short stocky horses by introducing some of the best early imports from England into their local bloodlines. Horse racing has always been popular in Virginia, especially during Colonial times when one-on-one matches took place down village streets, country lanes and across level pastures. Some historians claim that the first American Horse races were held near Richmond in Enrico County (now Henrico County), Virginia, in 1674. A Match Race at Tucker’s Quarter Paths – painting by Sam Savitt Early Racing in America Boston vs Fashion (The Great Match Race) Importation of Thoroughbreds into America The first Thoroughbred horse imported into the American Colonies was Bulle Rock (GB), who was imported in 1730 by Samuel Gist of Hanover County, Virginia.
