Reflections On The Lake

"In the 1930’s my uncle Hans purchased all of the land from near Dolloff Dam all the way around to where Meindl Way is now. The original camp they built is off of what is now Meindl Way. It was a little 12x12 shack. They lived in that camp for a whole year. It was the Depression and no one had jobs. They actually survived in that shack for a whole year living off of the land. They picked berries and they would shoot a deer, even out of season, because they needed the food to live on."

Volunteer Opportunity to Learn and EARN... Print E-mail
Written by Tom Duffy   

Once again, PLIA is looking for volunteers to take the LAKE HOST TRAINING offered by the Dept. of Environmental Services.  Let's keep exotic weeds from spoiling our lake. Even if you have a few extra hours to monitor boats at the boat launch, we urge you to take the training. We need the volunteer hours for our matching grant!  and, yes, we can even compensate for work done.

Not only do you help us Save the Lake from evil weeds, you will learn alot about the lake! I can see Parents and Grandparents volunteering and showing their kids how to do it. We're not asking for any committment. But, TAKE the FREE TRAINING !  Then, if you have some time, you can decide to participate more...or not.

Click here for a copy of Training Schedule for dates in Concord.  We are making great progress at Pawtuckaway. Your help REALLY DOES make a difference.

PLIA Mission Statement

The Pawtuckaway Lake Improvement Association (PLIA) is a Private, Non-Profit Organization formed to monitor and act upon environmental and safety issues in the Pawtuckaway Lake Watershed area. The PLIA also provides education, information, recreation and other services to its members.


The Association routinely conducts water quality sampling under the New Hampshire Volunteer Lake Assessment program of the State of New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services. Other activities (sailboat races, fishing derbies, etc.) may be coordinated by the Association, but are funded by program participants.
