The PPCSLA Steering Commitee is guiding the development of the lake association in our first year and has crafted the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws that govern our activities as an organization. Each committee member is a volunteer and represents different areas of the lake and stream such that we have a balance of viewpoints and very localized knowledge of the lake and stream. We meet approximately once per month. Minutes of our Steering Committee meetings are available upon request to dues paying members of the PPCSLA. In November, 2025, the committee filed an application with the Maine State Secretary of State’s office to become incorporaed as a registered nonprofit corporation. Upon approval from the state, we will then apply to become a IRS 501(c)(3) exempt nonprofit. Click HERE or scroll down to learn more about each committee member.
Meet Our Steering Committee Members
I have lived on Pleasant Pond since March, 2020. I retired in 2021 after working for 35 years as a biology lab instructor and electron microscopy technician at Bates College. My formal training, in Fisheries Science (BS, MS – Univ. of Washington, Seattle), is relevant to many of the issues we face in the Cobbossee Watershed. In addition to leading the PPCSLA, I serve as a Litchfield Trustee on the Cobbossee Watershed District Board, as a board member for the Watershed Friends, and as a Litchfield representative on the New Mills Dam Committee. Lastly, I am a volunter water clarity (Secchi depth) monitor on the main basin of Pleasant Pond for the Cobbossee Watershed District. I look forward to building a strong lake association and working with our community to protect and preserve our beautiful stream and lake, and the entire Cobbossee Watershed.

VICE PRESIDENT
The Bulliner family has had property on Pleasant Pond since the late 1800’s. Since 1975, I’ve had a camp on Military Lane which is close to the outlet of the Cobbosseecontee Stream. After retiring from the Army Nurse Corps in 2000, I was finally able to move from DC to Brunswick and now enjoy regularly wandering up to camp 3 seasons a year.
SECRETARY
I have lived on Pleasant Pond in Litchfield since the summer of 2020. I am currently retired from Bowdoin College, where I taught Neuroscience and Biology for about 40 years. I enjoy a variety of activities on the pond; these include swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding, as well as walking and skating on the ice in the winter.
MEMBERSHIP COORDINATOR
In April 1992, my husband, Paul, and I moved into our place along Cobbosseecontee Stream. Our spot along the stream is unique in that we are located along the stream, at the head of Horseshoe Pond and have a gorgeous marsh behind our place. These three ecosystems attract lots of wildlife to our area, which we love! Paul and I enjoy exploring the waterway in all seasons, from swimming in summer, paddling spring through fall, and in winter we skate, ski and snowshoe. We feel so fortunate to live in such a beautiful area! We are excited to be part of the new stream and lake association, which is dedicated to preserving and protecting the entire stream (all 16 miles of it!), and its ponds and marshlands from aquatic invasive species and water quality challenges for today and for future generations.
I have been a PGA Professional in the golf industry since 1996, dedicating my career to growing the game and serving my community through golf. My commitment to giving back has been a central part of my career, including serving as President of the NCPGA Foundation, where I worked to advance initiatives that support youth, military veterans, and individuals with disabilities by providing access to golf and impactful community programs. My wife and I bought our home on Pleasant Pond in 2017 from her grandmother who had been living there since the early 1970’s. We love our lake and I look forward to being able to give back and help protect it.
Marty has lived on Pleasant Pond (Richmond) for 28 years on land that has been in his wife’s family since 1896. He is a retired music educator with a 38 year career including 16 years at Gardiner Area High School. In retirement, Marty takes full advantage of all that Pleasant Pond has to offer in all seasons. Look for Marty out sailing in summer and riding his bike on the ice in winter.
I am a new arrival to Pleasant Pond (May 2025), where I now live near the Thorofare Road boat launch in Litchfield. I am an environmental scientist with an environmental consulting firm, and I work on several aspects of aquatic ecosystems, including assessments for aquatic invasive species. I moved from Ohio to Maine with my wife, who is a faculty member at Bates College, and we’re thrilled to call Maine home. I am excited to be a part of the PPCSLA Steering Committee and to promote a healthy Cobbossee Watershed.
We have lived on the north end of Pleasant Pond for the past 10 years. We live off of Spring Cove Lane in Gardiner. Just recently our camp has been transitioned into a year round home. My family still resides in Brunswick but we spend as much time as possible at camp. We’re the one’s that have been hosting the annual summer Concert on the Pond. We love it here!
