  • 2019 Newsletter
    The Pemaquid Point Association Spring 2019 Newsletter May 10, 2019 Volume 3, Issue 10 From the President: Pat Porter We are rapidly approaching another summer at the Point and I look forward to catching up with many of you again. Somehow each summer seems to go by quicker than the last and the time to meet with everyone gets shorter and shorter. A quick follow up on one of the most exciting issues from last year is the status of the Pemaquid Mill. As I have mentioned in a previous email, we reached and surpassed our goal to purchase the old Poole Brother property and are awaiting the spring thaw to proceed with the mitigation of the arsenic, which was deposited as a result of the storage of the treated lumber on the site. The extra funds raised will come in handy to pay for the completion of this project, making it a clean site. As a result of the purchase of the property we are assured that the “gateway to Pemaquid Point” will be preserved for future generations. There are big plans for the restoration of the old mill and should you have an interest in helping with this project we welcome all comers, just let me know. If you pass by in the spring and happen to see the roof of the old mill covered in seagulls, feel free to stop by, because it means that the alewives are running and that is a sight not to be missed. An added bonus to this purchase is that the DRA plans to lease the old store to the Old Bristol Historical Society, so that they may establish a museum of all things Bristol on the site, in addition to the mill.

Lighthouses on the Coast of Maine Sixty-seven lighthouses still perch high on the rocky cliffs of Maine. Some of these lighthouses were built more than two hundred years ago to help sailors navigate their way through storms, fog, and dark of night. These beacons saved wooden merchant vessels sailing dangerous courses through narrow and shallow channels filled with countless hazards. Maine’s lighthouses were a part of our country’s history at a time when we were defending our shores, as far back as the Revolutionary war. Some were damaged by war and many were destroyed by the violence of nature. Light keepers risked their own lives to keep their lamps burning. A proud and dramatic beauty can be seen in these structures and their rugged environments–the reason I recently returned to Maine for another photo exploration.
