By delaying the reconstruction of the dam from the 2023 building season to the 2024 building season, the cost shot up from $800k to $1.2M! Of that $1.2M, we’ve raised ONE MILLION DOLLARS! That funding comes from: $450,000 Town Bond, $100,000 in federal ARPA funds, and over $450,000 raised by private donations (including $30,000 from the Maple Corner Community Center).

Unfortunately, the VOREC grant we were hoping would help us close the funding gap didn’t come through. Instead, two generous community members have loaned the CPA the final $200,000 in needed funding. We have three years to pay them back
