History of the Quabbin Reservoir

Rev. Jeff Johnson of the First Congretational Church in Milton will share the history of the Quabbin Reservoir.  The water  used in Milton every day came at a steep price.  Jeff will share how the communities of Enfield, Dana, Greenwich & Prescott were displaced forever when their towns were taken by eminent domain to construct the 412 billion-gallon Quabbin Reservoir. 

Sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Public Library.  Light refreshments will be available.
