The Curtis Pond Association has
partnered with the Calais
Selectboard. Both parties have
signed a Memo of Understanding
(MOU) which outlines a path to
fixing the dam, resolves the long
standing issue of ownership of
the dam, and demonstrates our
joint commitment to the project.
We’ve also teamed up with the
Maple Corner Community Center
to assist with fundraising.

2003 Men of Maple Corner

What will a new dam look like?
No, it won’t likely be covered with
naked men again anytime soon.
However, the planned design
(developed in 2013 by Dubois &
King) calls for building a concrete
dam, largely hidden from view, on
the upstream (pond) side of the
existing dam. We’re teaming up with engineers, contractors, dam experts, and
historic preservationists to ensure
the new dam maintains the historic
facade of the existing dam, while
offering another century of
protection against dangerous
weather events.
