Committee service is another option. This work is less involved but equally important. Committees meet approximately every other month but members also arrange with the chair to accomplish necessary tasks at other times.
​
Current Committees at this time are:
-
Habitat Restoration - identify and implement projects that restore or enhance ecological functioning to degraded areas in the Sebasticook watershed.
-
Stewardship - helps manage SRLT community lands by working on trails & preserves monthly. Members attend as their schedule allows. The committee makes recommendations to the Board on land management, and potential acquisitions.
-
Outreach & Development - helps educate the community about conservation and the natural world. Facilitates public relations and recruits and maintains membership and supporters
​
The Board of Directors share their talents and skills to help protect, steward and advocate on behalf of open space in the Sebasticook watershed.

Directors serve a three-year term with a possibility to renew their service for another two terms
