Current Projects

The Dennis Conservation Trust initiated the efforts that led to the Town’s successful acquisition of the former Howland Property on Bass River in West Dennis, and has pledged $500,000 towards the purchase. The Trust has also assisted the Town in securing commitments for $1.9 million dollars in Federal and State grants for the purchase of this property. We are continuing to work in conjunction with the Town to raise additional funds for site improvements. Once destined for dense condominium development, the 3.5-acre parcel will now be a waterfront park, offering public access to the beautiful Bass River.
