"The ice went out on Damariscotta Lake on Sunday, April 19."
"Ice-out dates on Damariscotta Lake have been recorded in a 19th-century black-leather ledger since 1837, with the Jackson family recording the dates since at least 1903, when Dr. Frederick Jackson built a large home at the head of the lake."
""Ice-out is official when you can take a boat from Damariscotta Mills to Great Bay in Jefferson," said Joan Jackson, who married the grandson of Dr. Jackson."
