Fort Point District, Boston. Ms. Li, President of the Boston Harbor
Association, has led the charge to improve and reconnect Boston
to waterfront. After nearly four decades, Boston Harbor is one of the
cleanest in the country and home to a working port and cruise terminal, world-class museums, numerous restaurants, hotels, design firms, a
brewery, music venue and the Boston Convention and Exposition Center.
There is always something new to see and do in this burgeoning
district of South Boston. The Committee is in the process of organizing
Scavenger Hunts with varying topics to help you and other attendees
familiarize yourself with the well and lesser known points of interest in
and around Boston. Do you know what animal is represented on the
most famous weathervane in the Country, maybe the world? Do you
know where it is?
Choose from 135 sessions at the largest gathering of landscape arc
professionals in the world! Test drive the latest products offered b
500 exhibitors in the EXPO.
Leading up to the Women’s Walk, additional morning exercise will be
available to attendees. The BSLA will be sponsoring an early morning
Pilates and Zumba class at the Westin. These activities will help get your
day started off on the right foot.
Proud to Be BSLA
Preparations for the Convention have brought the dozens (and soon
to be hundreds) of Chapter members closer together and have resulted
in many new friendships. Without the hard work and dedication of our
members, our challenges would have been insurmountable. We
especially wish to thank the chapter leadership, the Executive Committee,
particularly Chapter President Kathleen Ogden and Chapter Trustee
Tom Doolittle and BSLA Association Manager, Vicki Carr, for their
commitment and dedication to these Annual Meeting preparations.

Much more is left to be done as our programs and plans have been
refined and additional roles for volunteers have been defined. It is not
too late to get involved.
