Oral history interview with Dave Talan about the Mashapaug Pond community, Providence, R.I. Born in 1948, Talan has lived in the Mashapaug Pond area since childhood. He served many years as president of the Reservoir Triangle Neighborhood Association, as well as director of the local Little League. He describes in depth his involvement in public projects, including the preservation of open space at Mashapaug Pond, school reform, and sports coaching. He shares, in a very articulate way, his insights on the history of the area over a 50-year period.
