About and Contact

We started our group because NOVA Parks is more bent on paving over Upton Hill Park than preserving it as parkland. In the Seven Corners area we need to keep and improve every existing square foot of greenspace rather than add yet another parking lot -- particularly one that sits empty for three quarters of the year.

The Friends of Upton Hill can be contacted at: AFriend@FriendsofUptonHill.org

Thanks to you who contacted us by e-mail. We will respond shortly.
