Resident June McMorrow reports vandalism, illegal dumping at Camp Siella Selah
Summary
June McMorrow told the conservation committee that buildings at Camp Siella Selah were broken into over the winter and that trash dumping continues in summer despite carry-in, carry-out rules; committee members said they will bring the issues to the select board and are planning cleanup and security steps before summer.
June McMorrow, a resident, told the conservation committee that over the winter multiple buildings at Camp Siella Selah were broken into and that illegal dumping at the site continues, especially during the summer.
McMorrow described physical damage at the recreation site, saying “doors were kicked in, window screens were bent, and equipment inside the cabins were damaged.” She also told the committee that trash is repeatedly left at the property despite carry-in, carry-out rules intended to keep the site clean.
The committee members characterized the problems as long‑standing and said they plan to bring the matter to the select board for further consideration. A commission member said the group is working on options for cleanup and improving site security ahead of the busy summer season.
The transcript does not record a formal motion or vote; committee members described this as a plan to refer the issue to the select board rather than a finalized action. The transcript also does not specify the town name in which Camp Siella Selah is located.
Next steps reported in the meeting: committee members will raise vandalism and dumping with the select board and continue developing cleanup and security measures before summer.
