Friends of Moody Pond 6th Annual Online Auction and Ice Cream Social!

About this event

Since 2020, FMP members have organized an online auction each year, showcasing items and gift certificates from local businesses and artists. It’s a fun way to engage in our fundraising efforts. The 6th Annual Online Auction begins on Saturday, July 12th, at 32auctions.com/MoodyPond2025 and concludes at our 6th Annual Ice Cream Social Celebration on Moody Pond on Saturday, August 9th, 331 Forest Hill Ave., from 4 PM to 7 PM. There will be live music, ice cream, and the Upper Saranac Foundation (USF) Invasive Species Divers will be on hand to demonstrate their equipment and discuss the invasive species, Eurasian watermilfoil, in Moody Pond. Attendees can view items and participate in the silent online auction, so be sure to bring your cell phone. As a thank you to the community for their support in preserving and protecting the pond, this event is free, family-friendly, and dog-friendly. 

Just over six years ago, after discovering invasive Eurasian water milfoil in Moody Pond, the non-profit Friends of Moody Pond (FMP) was formed. Thanks to donations, grants, and community participation in our fundraising events, FMP has been able to hire USF’s professional divers to hand-harvest and remove more than 1000 pounds of the aquatic invasive species, Eurasian watermilfoil, from the pond. The Friends of Moody Pond is determined to restore the pond to the sparkling, pristine waterbody it’s been for generations. Reflect; Restore; Celebrate; Moody Pond.
