A Benefit for the St. John's Pond Watershed Alliance

Why It Matters
St. John's Pond is not simply a scenic landmark. It is a functioning freshwater ecosystem — home to seven federally protected species — and it is under serious threat. The dam's wooden spillway weir is actively failing. Without intervention, it could drain twelve feet of water into Cold Spring Harbor.
This benefit is the community's answer. Each year we gather here to make the restoration possible — and to remind ourselves what we're protecting.
Second Annual Benefit · September 10, 2026
Tickets, sponsorships, auction bidding, and gifts of any size are all in one place — our GalaBid campaign. Reserve a seat, become a sponsor, or simply give to the pond you love.
