The Washington County Board of County Commissioners will dedicate the newly rebuilt boat launch and dock at Gap Pond in Sunny Hills with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, tomorrow, June 18, at 10:30 a.m. The event will include light refreshments and will mark a key milestone in the county’s efforts to restore the lake’s historic appeal.
This lake is part of a stretch of lakes in the southern portion of Washington County. Settled in 1846 by the Wells family, who operated a water-powered mill on the lake, it has served as a favorite fishing and recreation spot for nearly 200 years.
The new improvements are a part of an ongoing initiative to preserve and enhance the county’s outdoor spaces for future generations.
