Who we are:

We are people like you who want to protect the irreplaceable natural treasures  we love. Together with our neighbors, we protect the distinct character of our coastal communities and inspire a commitment to Plum Island.

Today, the Plum Island we care about is eroding fast, and the natural forces causing erosion, are moving faster, as we saw from the Patriots Day storm.  The lack of federal effort to maintain our jetty system and routine dredging has increased the erosion along Plum Island Beach.

Our mission is not only to nourish the beach, but also protect the tax base, insure the integrity of the sewer and water system and maintain uninterrupted access to Northern Blvd.
