Get involved - Make a real impact on your community.
I. Restore the Mill Pond
Relocating tons of sediment that have come to rest in the pond. The removal
of this will create a more sustainable spring-fed pond that can support a wide
range of bio-diversity such as thicker ice for a prolonged period of
recreational ice skating.
II. Warming/Skate House Improvements
Built in the mid 1930's of post and beam construction by the W.P.A. with
locally quarried limestone. Future plans include: Roof & gutter replacement,
new windows, new heating and electrical systems, updated restrooms, handicap access, planters, tables with umbrellas and repairing the limestone.
III. Family Oriented Events
The Friends of the Mill Pond offer numerous family oriented activities. Our
Fishing Clinic for young children in April; Strawberry Fest in June; Great Duck
Race in July (sponsor a racing duck and win prizes); Oktoberfest with fun, beer
& dancing; Decorating the historic Warming House for the Christmas holidays.
Go to our "activities calendar to find out more.
IV. Birdhouses
Own a waterfront house!!! Wood Ducks, Wrens, Purple Martins; are just some of
the birds we would like to attract more of. The Oak Creek valley is home to many
different birds. We can make them feel more welcome by providing housing.
VII. Old-fashioned Footbridge
A well designed yet historically appropriate footbridge will provide access
across the Mill Pond, offer a closer view of birds and waterfowl and add charm
to this distinctive environmental setting.
