Our Vision:
In our dark and cold late fall and winter months, this area will become a center for cross‐country skiing, snowshoeing , walking, snowboarding, skating, and sledding. In summer, spring, and fall, a variety of activities, such as hiking, biking, canoeing/kayaking, birding, and rowing will be possible. There is additional potential for athletic field development, an open air skating rink, and a lodge providing shelter, refreshments, and restroom facilities. The design encourages a multi‐use, four‐ season facility suitable for people of all ages and abilities. Particular attention will be paid to sustainable, low‐cost operations. Across socioeconomic lines, people will come together during the daytime and evening to enjoy diverse, low maintenance, low‐impact recreational offerings in a beautiful natural setting.
We are embarking on a 1.5 million dollar project to develop Quarry Road into a premier four season outdoor recreation area for Waterville and surrounding communities. This project includes purchase of additional land, expansion of trail system for nordic skiing, snowshoeing and mountain biking, road and parking expansion, bringing electricity to the area, limited snowmaking and the building of a multipurpose lodge. This is an exciting project which will have tremendous benefits to the area. Community support will be essential to making this dream come true.
