Spofford Lake Association
Ice Out Lottery
It has become a tradition to guess the lake's ice out date. This year, it is the first date on which there is no visible ice anywhere on the lake surface at exactly 2pm in the afternoon. CHS records has the latest date being May 3, 1956. However, It has been occurring for many past decades in March and April.
Now the Spofford Lake Association has made it into a fundraiser. They are sharing the profits from this first ever ice out lottery with the Chesterfield Historical Society! We are thrilled and want to encourage you to buy as many as you can afford.
