About the Boat Ramp
The Towle Farm Community boat ramp is a privately owned and maintained boat launch located on Bonnyman Road at Province Lake. The members of the Towle Farm Community have funded this vital resource for boat owners without a fee for many years, but with the increase in taxes, insurance and the cost of product, we are finding it difficult to continue without the help of those that enjoy this benefit.The increased amount of boats using motors to load and unload boats onto and off of trailers has created damage and erosion of the material at the end of the ramp which leads to its deterioration. This boat ramp was not designed to sustain the forces generated by the larger and more powerful boats and the ever increasing traffic we see on the lake .
The Towle Farm Community Board will start a Capital Campaign to not only raise the funds to help with the day to day maintenance, but to reach our goal of $10,000, which will allow us to install a precast concrete design on our boat launch within the next two years. This timeline will depend on the generosity of donations received, ultimately helping us reach our goal.
In order to keep the TFCC boat ramp open to Province Lake boaters, we are asking for a $25.00 donation per year.
Checks payable to TFCC Boat Ramp can be sent to P.O. Box 70, East Wakefield, NH 03830 or use our Venmo QR Code (below).
Thank you, TFCC Board
