We are an association of residents formed to advocate for Lake Gardner and its surrounding open and wooded spaces known as the Powow Conservation area.  The lake is located about one half mile northwest of Amesbury center, and the conservation area comprises approximately one hundred acres on the eastern shore of the lake.

Our goals are to see that:

1.The health and features of the lake are

both restored and protected.

2. The water quality is monitored and improved.

3. The lake's value as an educational and passive recreational resource are promoted.

Water Quality Testing Done Weekly in the Summer!
Testing results for Town bathing beaches now available HERE

It is our hope that through public information and education, citizens, businesses, and leaders of Amesbury will take an active role in restoring and preserving Lake Gardner and its surrounding natural areas.
