Welcome. A moment-to-moment story...

Camp Lion is Non-Profit Open Space

According to OLIVER, our government source, Camp Lion is listed as Non-profit Open Space, shown under the Conservation/ Recreation layer  It can be considered 'de-facto public space' for being open to the public for many years. 


Now there is no permanent protection listed for the lot, but even private parcels can be subject to Environmental Protection under Section 106 of Federal Law, if this non-profit organization has received any federal money.


On another note, there are other ways the Camp can obtain money to operate, instead of selling the land.  The government is offering over $400,000 dollars in grant money to preserve Open Space in Mass like Camp Lion's.... Mass Gov, Land and Recreation Grants
