Students Use GIS Tools to Map Ingram Park

Jack Buckley students @ Ingram 2015

Cohasset High School teacher Jack Buckley visited our Ingram Park property with his Community Service class. The students looked for clues to the property’s history, like its old stone walls and an old foundation.

In September the Cohasset Board of Selectmen signed the Conservation Restriction for the Ingram Park property. A CR is required because Community Preservation Act money partially funded the purchase.

The CR was then sent to DCR (MA Department of Conservation & Recreation) and is awaiting State approval.

Mapping of the property is a component of the CR, and once again, the CCT is partnering with Cohasset High School teacher Jack Buckley’s Community Service class. The students will be using online mapping tools to develop maps of the property with links to other information.
