What a Day for Manchaug Pond! What Day for The DAM Race!

An amazing day!

Manchaug Pond is spectacular,  as are the friends, neighbors, and guest runners and  walkers who joined a core of very special MPF volunteers to make our event a success.

Here are a few first unofficial photos coming in of the over 150 runners and walkers, and the extraordinary sights from this year's The DAM Race:

Eagle Visiting Manchaug Pond

 

So, picture it... you wake up in the morning, walk to the kitchen, put up the shade and there before your eyes, up close and personal is ... the American Bald Eagle... RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU JUST STANDING THERE!

or you come around the corner of the house, and there before your very eyes, closer than your could ever imagine is ... the American Bald Eye... RIGHT THERE!



The wonder of Manchaug Pond!
