Registration is NOT required!    The "Saving the Great Swamp: Battle to Defeat the Jetport" Documentary will be shown at the MMT Library 6:30 PM: Doors open, 7 PM: Film Begins, 8 PM: Panel Discussion   In 1959, the Port Authority of New York announced plans to build a huge international jetport in the swamp. This “done deal” proposal, would have filled in the swamp, demolished 700 homes, and changed the landscape forever. But a small group of concerned citizens opposed the threat and won.  The award-winning one-hour documentary “Saving the Great Swamp,” tells the story of the events, people and politics behind the struggle to preserve this beautiful rural area between 1959 and 1968. USA Today called the film “a truly astonishing and entertaining history lesson” and it has aired nationally on PBS. The film will be shown at 7:00pm in the Meeting Room of the MMT Library and admission is free. Registration not required.
