Lake Clean Up - UPDATE, POSTPONED

The weather is just not cooperating in spite of my optimism!  We are forced to postpone the clean up until tomorrow morning starting at 11 AM.

See you there!

Lake Clean Up

Lake clean up is still ON for Saturday AM at 9, rain or shine!  We are hoping the weather forecasters are a tad bit incorrect however, if the rain becomes a washout any time after 9 AM there will be a rain date Sunday AM to finish the areas. 

Thank you ALL for volunteering!

Water level update

The Town of Sutton, our dam caretaker, reports the water level is  4 1/2" from full - we are right where we want to be!

This Saturday, give back to Manchaug Pond!

Earth Day?  Right here in your neighborhood - Manchaug Pond!

Be part of the effort to preserve Manchaug Pond and its watershed this Saturday, April 26th by joining in on the annual Spring Cleanup! We'll meet at 9 :00 AM at the State Boat Ramp on Torrey Road in Sutton - have a coffee, grab some gloves and a trash bags, and fan out from there hitting the ramp, roadsides and shoreline!  

 

A tally of trash collected, volunteer hours of those participating, and area covered will be reported to the state DEP as part of our match for the Phase 2 S.319 Non-Point Pollution Grant for Manchaug Pond.  So be sure to join us for an hour or two!

Water Level Nearing Full

 

 

A look at the flashboards today shows the lake water level is approaching full.  Water continues to flow in from the hillsides of the watershed.
