| About Us and Our Vision |
Team Haverhill is an independent, volunteer action group dedicated to making Haverhill a better place to live, learn, work and play. We pursue this purpose by fostering civic dialogue, organizing hands-on projects, creating a more informed public, and advocating for positive change.
One example of a Team Haverhill vision that elicited broad public interest and discussion was the proposed recreational loop along both sides of the river. Since the drawings were unveiled early in 2006, this idea has stayed alive in public discussion. The loop idea was a key focus of the professionally-led Urban River Visions II community planning project (a state supported process for which Team Haverhill had helped secure grant funding.) At the end of 2008, the City purchased the land on the Bradford side of the river between the bridges with state funding; and in 2009 a new section of boardwalk was unveiled downtown. While it will take many years for Haverhill to complete the recreational loop, we would never have come this far on the project without community vision, enthusiasm and support that Team Haverhill helped to generate.
Other examples of “Vision into Action” include:
- River Ruckus Event
- Downtown Murals and Walking Tour Map
- Soles of Haverhill “Shoe-la-bration”
- Playground Renovations
- Single-stream Recycling Project
- A Revitalized Farmers’ Market
- Establishment of the Mentoring Network
