The Myopia Hunt continues to enjoy a close relationship with the MFHA and our local land conservation organizations.  As in the past, we ask that every subscriber show their support by becoming a member of the MFHA, Essex County Trail Association, and the Trustees of Reservations at Appleton Farms.  This year we are adding the Essex County Greenbelt to the list because we hunt through Greenbelt land as well. We are very excited about the upcoming season and look forward to having you with us.
