Keep SB Butler Green
WELCOME
This group is comprised of Groton town residents who wish to ensure the responsible preservation of the SB Butler school property. Working with town officials, we strive to ensure that any development plans protect the character of our existing neighborhood and keep Historic Downtown West Mystic beautiful for future generations.
Recent News!
​
Our recent fundraiser at Milestone in Mystic was a huge success and we would like to thank everyone who helped to organize and especially those who donated items for the raffle. It was great meeting new people and connecting as a community. Thank you!

Our Purpose
The Keep SB Butler Green Team is committed to preserving the former elementary school property in the heart of the Ocean View Heights neighborhood for open green space and active and passive recreational use. Our multifaceted goal is to maintain the character and sense of place of the surrounding area; to ensure the property's continued accessibility as recreational and green space for generations to come; and to maintain and enhance quality of life for the greater Groton community. As our area has become an increasingly popular tourist destination, those who live here must manage the associated challenges. It is vital to save this nine-acre space from development that would detract from (rather than enrich) the quality of life in the area.

In addition, we ordered stickers that have the website QR code and address. We will be walking around the neighborhood next week and adding the stickers to your lawn signs so we add more ways for people to contact us. If you want some stickers for yourself please contact us!​​​​​​
