Litter pickup

We do two road cleanups per year.  One in the spring and one in the fall.  The one in the fall is usually on Make a Difference Day in October and includes the shoreline of the lake.

Noxious Weed Clean-up

There are two professional surveys done on the lake each year.  One in the spring and one in the fall.  The spring survey can be as early as May or as late as July depending on the type of winter we have had.  Plants must be in their early growth stages to determine milfoil and other noxious weed existence.  Two surveys are also done at the same time by our own milfoil crew.  The data is then compared and work determined for the lake.  The milfoil patrol is a great way to learn about your lake.  Sign up and come survey with us.

We have posted their latest survey map in the survey section of the web.
