Open Space Preserved

Good news on the green space conservation front. Today's Sun reports that 232 acres, with 7,000 ft of shoreline off Fort Smallwood Road and abutting the Patapsco River and several creeks, called White Pond Park, has been saved through a joint effort by the Weinberg Foundation and the State Program Open Space. The park, in Pasadena, will have even more acreage than Downs Park, which was acquired by the County in the 1980s.
