<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear MassPlanner Listserv,</div><div><br></div><div>I'm happy to announce that at the end of June I'll be retiring from <a href="https://csld.edu/">the Conway School of Landscape Design</a>. After almost 10 years of "second chapter" work I'm ready to have more fun and travel. </div><div><br></div><div>Some of you I know from my 30 years in local government in Virginia and Maryland, and so many of you I've met along the way here. You've all helped me to learn about the systems and processes of Massachusetts and many of you have partnered with the school on projects in your communities. Thank you for all your collaboration and support.</div><div><br></div><div>I'd like to introduce my successor, Emily Johnson. With a background in land stewardship, conservation, and applied research, Emily comes to the Conway School most recently from Harvard Forest, where she spent six years fostering partnerships between researchers, students, and regional practitioners such as planning agencies and land trusts.</div><div><br></div><div>Emily is working limited hours this summer, so please reach out in the fall with your project ideas. Our project list for grad student-led <b>winter planning projects</b> is open right now. Check out the links below for examples of recent winter term projects.</div><div><br></div><div>best wishes to one and all,</div><div>CJ</div><span class="gmail_signature_prefix">-- </span><br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style=""><span style="border-collapse:collapse"><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px;margin-bottom:0in;line-height:normal;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial"><b><span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(56,118,29);background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial">CJ Lammers, </span></b><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#38761d">Projects Manager</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px;margin-bottom:0in;line-height:normal;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial"><i><span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(102,102,102)">she/her pronouns</span></i><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#38761d"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px;margin-bottom:0in;line-height:normal;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#38761d"><a href="https://csld.edu/" target="_blank">The Conway School</a></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px;margin-bottom:0in;line-height:normal;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#38761d"><b>Graduate Program in Sustainable Landscape Planning + Design </b></span></p>
