Latest Updates from the Panther Pond Association
September 2024
- Fall 2024 Lake Level and Boat Ramp Access: The current lake level is 3” below the the target level due to a lack of rain in September. Without a significant rain even we expect the lake level to slowly fall due to evaporation and some leakage at the Dam due to construction. There is currently no water flowing over the Dam. The current level of the lake (Sept 18, 2024) should allow boats to come out of the lake at Mill Street or Slovenski Beach ramp. Trees are still impeding the Tenny River so use your own judgement.
- If you are a member of the Panther Pond Association, you can take your boat out at the Slovenski beach ramp through October 3, 2024 for $30 per season. You can contact Peter Slovenski at [email protected] / 207-725-8049 to coordinate a takeout at the ramp. In an emergency, boats can be taken out later than October 3, 2024 and will be charged an additional fee of $50.
- On or about October 18, 2024 the lake will be drawn down by Maine Inland Fisheries and Wildlife for the Fall Salmon run. The lake level will begin to drop more rapidly at this time. This reduction of water level should stop at the end of November at which time it will be up to mother nature to refill the lake.
