Friends of the Institute Land; inactive as

 of 1998

DESCRIPTION

An organization which was dedicated to ensuring the permanent

preservation of the approximately 589 acres of Princeton

Township land known as the Institute Woods and Farmland, and

the protection of its existing environmental and historical

integrity.  The group named the Institute Land as the most

important open space remaining in the Princeton area--a

renowned bird habitat, part of an intact Revolutionary War

battlefield, a buffer between Route 1, and a place of enjoyment

for generations of local residents.  The founding members of the

group, which was one of the first organizations belonging to

the Institute Lands Preservation Committee, were Ron Berlin,

Helmit Schabb, Constance Greiff, Tom Southerland, Mark

Leuschten and David Stoll.  The group became inactive in 1998

after achieving its goals.
