BBC is a non-profit all-volunteer community organization that manages the 936-acre Fitzgerald Lake Conservation Area (FLCA) with the Northampton Conservation Commission. The City of Northampton owns this land.
Some major goals of BBC are:
- To protect and enhance the diversity of wildlife, plants, and habitats.
- To provide nature education through a series of Walks and Talks.
- To provide access for recreation that is not detrimental to wildlife, plants or habitats.
- To expand the FLCA through land acquisition and promote the preservation of open space.
