The Friends of Robbins Farm Park is a community     organization formed to promote the beautification,     restoration, improvement and maintenance of the      Robbins Farm Park in Arlington Heights,                Massachusetts. We sponsor and promote cultural,    educational, recreational and other community         activities throughout the year. We invite active       membership in the organization and seek to represent the Robbins Farm Park community.


Director of
Fundraising Named

Recognizing that available Town monies would not cover all the planned renovations at the Farm in Phase I, FORFP     decided we needed to create a fundraising committee and appoint a Director of Fundraising who would guide us and lead our efforts. Carole Kasper has been a force behind some of our best organized efforts to date including a very successful public information session held last fall. She  volunteered for the fundraising directorship and the Board overwhelmingly supported her. She is now forming a fundraising committee and is looking for interested volunteers to commit to research, planning and helping out with fundraising efforts in the near future. If you have    experience with fundraising or if you're just ready to get involved in FORFP, please consider contacting Carole by email at ckasper@rcn.com.
