We were supposed to get 18 to 24 inches of snow, mostly fluff. Warm air aloft came in and made it not so fluffy, in fact made it change to sleet for a long period of time. Total was about 8 inches but the top 2 inches is very dense, …
We are $7,275 away from our goal of $325,000! We have less than a month to close out the campaign and reach our goal. Since we announced the campaign in July, we have received pledges and/or donations from 183 families, grants from two foundations, the Land Bank of Wolfeboro-Tuftonboro and …
As usual, things have changed at the lake. The ideal conditions for ice skating have passed, but it was one of the best years for ice games in 10 years. Snow has covered the ice, so it is time to hang up the skates and break out cross country skis, …
As always, things change on the Lake. There was great skating before Christmas and that extended for a few days. Then, on New Year’s Eve, there was snow and then rain. Apparently, there was enough rain to make the skating good, or even better than before. Today, Jan. 2nd, the …

Walking the Heath Brook Property that the Wentworth Watershed Association is working to preserve (see related article) is a true joy. There are mature woods and views of the Heath and Copplecrown Mountain. Plans are afoot to build a trail so that everyone can enjoy the area and to make …
