The Natick Dam and Waterfall and Pond constitute one of the most beautiful spots in our Town and along the Charles River. The dam has stood for nearly a century and has become an iconic backdrop to historic South Natick, with personal meaning for many residents and others.

It is a historical and recreational treasure. On any given day people flock from miles around to come to the site to recharge with the sight and sound of the Charles River flowing over our Spillway. Picnics are laid out, children play, and neighbors fish. It has become an important part of our heritage, and yet there is a movement to remove the Waterfall forever.

We signed this petition to show solidarity in strongly urging the Select Board to simply maintain the dam, preserving the picturesque Waterfall for the future.
