<mods:abstract>A photograph of a workman preparing a vehicle to be removed from the lakebed of Lake Massasoit (Watershops Pond) in early November 2020. The lake was drained to fix the dam and revealed a number of vehicles resting on the lakebed. The workman is in a small boat (a Sundolphin according to the writing on the side) and is pulling on a rope that has been tied to one of the back wheels. In 1809, Lake Massasoit was formed by the army by damming the Mill River. The purpose of the dam was to ensure a constant flow of water downstream for the Springfield Armory “Watershops.” The Springfield Armory was America’s first and last National Armory, formed in 1777 and continuing production up until 1968. The formerly named Watershops Pond has 7 miles of shoreline and covers 186 acres. From 1892-1900, the buildings of Springfield College began to come about, and the name was changed to Lake Massasoit by Springfield College officials. The name came from a local hotel, the Massasoit House, owned by Marvin Chapin, a generous benefactor of the college. In 1920, the college purchased a large area of land on the upper end of the pond, and called it the “Freshman Camp.” Since the college was formed, students, faculty and visitors have used the Pond for sailing, swimming, ice skating and fishing. However, the lake was officially closed for swimming in 1984 when the lake was said to be unhealthy. This is a digital photograph. The image was printed and a print copy was placed in a folder within the collection.</mods:abstract>
