A big thank you to Mike Langlois for his engineering skills to help build a grater for our roads - materials were donated by Templeton Salvage so we thank them for that, additional road maintenance will be happening in the weeks ahead - the ongoing rain has made it difficult to keep up with!

UPDATED IMPORTANT NOTICES TO ALL MEMBERS
IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM THE EPA: Recently, the EPA was on grounds and observed demolition debris from a few locations near camp owner fire pits - please be advised there are burning laws that apply here in Massachusetts. You may NOT burn leaves, brush, trees, cane or driftwood from commercial or industrial land clearing, grass, hay, stumps or tires, construction materials or demolition debris or household trash. Thank you in advance for adhering to these laws.
BOAT OWNERS: There are two additional boats that are stored on the top of the hill by the club. These need to be removed ASAP so that maintenance can be done to the hill before too much overgrowth occurs. With lots of rain recently, the hill remains very soft, if you drive up and find you are sinking, PLEASE, do NOT proceed, back out and do not drive any further to preserve the lawn. Thank you in advance for helping us maintain the property.

Pond Safety
As the weather gets warmer and more and more people enjoy the pond, please be mindful of your visibility in the water. You might think about what color suits you purchase for the highest visibility in the water, especially for children. Open water swimming is not allowed unless you are wearing a visible buoy. Boaters please be mindful of your surroundings when enjoying the water.
Let's all have a fun and safe summer! |
