Claremont's 250th Anniversary in 2014
Northern Heritage Mills' Electric boat on the Sugar River in Claremont built by boat builder and engineer, Will Ansell. The highly visible, stationary boat will bring attention to the importance of Claremont's historic preservation and its connection to water power and its historic mills. This will be a community educational, energy-history, and engineering program. The boat will be generating electric lights at night using the Sugar River for power.
