Property History

Morgan Memorial Goodwill Industries protected 330 acres of their land with Mount Grace in 2007. The 500-acre property was formerly home to Goodwill's Morgan Memorial Fresh Air Camp. The protected land surrounds the former campus of the camp and is located between the southern end of Lake Rohunta and South Athol Pond. It includes 7,500 feet of road frontage that could otherwise have been developed. Most of the lake frontage on the east side of North Spectacle Pond in New Salem is also covered by the conservation restriction.
