*This summer Friends of Winthrop lake plan to host a community Water Chestnut pull. This is literally a “hands on” activity where we invite members of the community to get out on the lake in boats and manually pull weeds. This promises to be a fun, productive and social event.

*pending town approval, anticipated on 25 June
