WE NEED YOUR HELP! Berry, Dexter, and Wilson Ponds needs your help! If you live on one of these ponds, use the beach, or put your boat in to fish or swim, we need you to pay your dues of $50 per household. We currently do not have invasive plants on our ponds and the BDW Ponds Association is working very hard to keep it that way. Many of our neighboring ponds now have been invaded by these plants that are ruining their lakes and the value of their property. You don’t need to live on the pond to make a donation. Click here to view BDW Watershed Association Membership list for 2024-2025 Mail your membership check to: BDW Watershed Association P.O. Box 234 Winthrop, ME 04364 Annual membership is $50 per home. An additional donation to Association's Lake Preservation fund is encouraged. Join our association and help to keep our lakes free of invasive plants. www.bdwponds.org/join-now-membership.html Thank you and please share this with your waterfront neighbors! |
