Updates as we progress.

April 19th, 2024.  Since my earlier posting much has been accomplished.  The tree service arrived on 15th worked very efficiently for three 10 hour days.  They will be back today hoing to finish up on that job.  Yesterday, 4/18 eletrical matirials were delivered and the electric out fit conducted an inspection of the lines, poles and connections to determaine what other materials might be needed.  They will begin tackling the jobs ahead for them.  I have rented a large boomlift, to be delivered today.  This will certainly move the progress ahead more quickly.

All this moves my opening dated sooner then I could imagine when I made my earlier post.  Again, this will not be rushed and that date is not determind.  When I know the canpground is no longer a safety hazzard. 

I will continue to post updates here. 

April 4th, 2024.  Repairs in progress.

After having opened Potter’s Place Campground on May 1^st for 57 continuous seasons, I am unable to do so for the upcoming season.  I am reaching out to all returning seasonal and new joining seasonal campers.  I am also reaching out to all campers having made reservations for dates prior to the Memorial Day Weekend.

Since late fall and throughout the winter, Maine has seen several severe storms resulting in in downed trees, power poles and wirelines.  Maine has declared a state of emergence for all storms prior and FEMA is providing assistance throughout the state for those storms.  However, not addressing this recent storm.    

Due to circumstances beyond my control, the winter has paid its toll.  The storm of  April 3^rd, 4^th and 5^th, brought 18 inches for heavy wet snow clinging to ever tree and wireline.  The winds began mid storm and continued for several days, gusting to 65 mph.  This resulted in the uprooting and snapping dozens of trees and hundreds of large limbs breaking electrical poles, and wirelines.  Some water supply lines were pulled out by tree roots and broken electric poles.  Fortunately, I have yet to identify any damage to camping units on sites or in storage.

The campground is posted as “DANGER AREA, NO ENTRY BEYOND THIS POINT BY VEHICLE OR FOOT”.  This does apply to all.
