Third Annual Cruise for a Cause, Sunday August 24th: The slideshow above shows a bit of this spectacular cruise – if you want larger photos, look here.
We traveled with
the Hardy Boat under the watchful eye of Captain Al Crocetti on a route that included Pemaquid Point and John's Bay past Witch
Island to South Bristol Gut to Damariscotta River past Christmas Cove, Inner
Heron Island and back to New Harbor. 76 members and friends of PWA enjoyed this special cruise. This event was sponsored by King Eider's Pub who provided excellent food and staff.
PWA Birdseed Sale: It's time to think about helping our feathered friends – and ourselves as we enjoy their beauty when they come to our feeders. Place your order early (deadline is September 19th) on the downloadable order form and pick up your birdseed on October 4th.
20th Anniversary Party August 4th!
The Pemaquid Watershed Association (PWA) marks twenty years as a land trust this year. To celebrate, a 20th Anniversary Dinner Party was held on Monday, August 4th, at 74 Maine Bistro in Damariscotta. We filled the back room of the restaurant and enjoyed lively conversations over a delicious dinner prepared by Chef James Metzger. Remarks from long-time member Mary Berger, President Ken Heath and Executive Director Donna Minnis filled us in on where PWA came from, where it is now, and where it's going as a dynamic land trust and steward of our beautiful watershed.
Thanks to the generosity of 74 Maine Bistro owners, Hannah Sparrell and Chef James Metzger, 35 percent of the proceeds from the event will benefit the PWA.
We are pleased to provide our newest publications online: Our Summer 2008 Newsletter (2.4 Mb, well worth the download!) and our PWA Brochure. In addition, the Watershed Kids Nature Day Camp brochure is here for Summer 2008.
A higher resolution copy of the Summer Newsletter is available here (3.5 Mb - sharper pictures).
