Q: What is a Mill Girl's favorite sport? A: BOXING! . . . Because they know how to bobbin weave. Young farm women were recruited to work in Lowell's earliest textile mills because they already knew how to work on manual looms and were an untapped labor force. While the power looms did most of the work, these Mill Girls were experts in changing out bobbins (spools of thread) on the shuttles and monitoring the quality of cloth woven on the looms. #LowellNPS #LikeLowell #YourParkStory #NationalTell

We let one of our gen z rangers write the script for this… The typical mill girl ranged between ages 15 to 30 while the average boarding house keeper was usually between 30 to 50 years old.

With Lowell's iconic canal system comes the sound of waterpower. We think that this lovely sound deserves to be awarded #BestSound! The canals brought water to all of Lowell's textile mills, powering the waterwheels and turbines which kept their machinery running. Today, they stand as reminders of Lowell's industrial past as impressive architectural feats in waterpower technology. Many walkways in Lowell travel alongside these canals, where you can experience the calming sounds of running water
