Chairperson’s Message 2009 was a challenging year for all non-profits and Saratoga P.L.A.N. was no exception. PLAN had to take a hard look at its programs, services, and resources in order to get organized and streamline and upgrade its systems and functions. Committee procedures were established, file cabinets were purchased to create a central- ized filing system, accounting methods were restructured, new policies adopted, a GIS mapping program was set up… not especially exciting stuff, but necessary to lay the foundation for our future.

The Board and our new Executive Director focused on our Stewardship responsibilities—the properties we own in fee or on which hold a conserva- tion easement. With the assistance of the Leadership Saratoga Class and numerous Galway volunteers our Galway Preserve opened with public trails, a parking area and a revamped garage building that can be used for classes. We focused our community planning efforts on sharing the results of the Battles of Saratoga Viewshed Protection Plan. We consolidated our July Annual Meeting and our September Feast of the Fields.

On the board and staff level, we expanded the board with 7 new members and clearly identified what we expect of board members. We undertook the same review of staff roles and goals and made according changes to titles and responsibilities. We had to lay off one staff member and curtail some con- The Groundnut or Wild Bean vine (Apias americana) flourishes in moist tractual relationships.
