Meet the Pond’s Representatives

Littleton and Ayer Spectacle Pond Association

Littleton and Ayer Spectacle Pond Association (SPA) was founded in 1998 by a cadre of pond dwellers; its genesis spurred by a number of factors including profusion of non-native aquatic plant life, (then) Guilford Railroad’s plans to build a substantial auto unloading facility in Ayer in an environmentally sensitive area, and last but not least the realization that for many pond abutters, the pond is a focal point for residential living and that an organization was needed to collectively protect what is valuable.

Today, much of the Association’s work revolves around pond monitoring and mitigation, environmental advocacy, organizational structure and membership renewal. The goal of the SPA Board is to address issues with a commitment to research, dialogue and community.
