Grace Bartlett
For Grace Bartlett the woods, fields, frog ponds, and streams have been in her cells since growing up on a small farm in rural New Hampshire. Grace now lives in Bangor, is the Pastor at First Congregational Church, UCC, Brewer, and is a Maine Master Naturalist. In her spare time Grace is apt to be found absorbed in the wonder of creation as she wanders a trail with a hand lens, a camera, and notebook in hand. William Phillips
Bill is a retired software engineer who lives in Orono with his wife. He has been involved in efforts to preserve those things that he feels make Bangor unique and desirable: its architecture, downtown, city neighborhoods, and natural environment. He wants to continue this through his involvement with Bangor Land Trust. Bill joined the BLT Board of Directors in September 2006.
