In the fall of 2010 Gary Pooler of Poolers (www.poolerenterprises.com) donated the machinery and man power to build a 1.5 acre pond in the southern back field or old tree farm area. It was built into a natural clay layer. There is no natural inlet so the pond is filling by natural rain water and by the summer of 2012 it was about 3/4 full. A dock was donated by the new Order of the Arrow Lodge “Tschipey Achtu” in addition to a wind powered aerator to help increase dissolved oxygen levels in the pond. It was originally stock with bluegills and large mouth bass. The Pooler’s Pond was dedicated in August 7, 2012.
