Information

Our fall Make a Difference Day cleanup was a success. Thank you to all of you who came out in the rain to help!

Winter is a great time to visit the lake. Although the crowds are gone and the scenery is beautiful, please don't forget that if you see something that needs to be cleaned up, fixed up or you become aware of an emerging problem, the LWPA board members are available to guide or assist.

Lake Wilderness is a unique, regional natural resource enjoyed by many. The LWPA is dedicated to maintaining the health of the lake and it's scenic natural habitat.

The fall lake survey was just completed and found no milfoil in the lake at this time. Good job all. Hope to have survey maps for the year posted. When we can hand pull the Milfoil from the lake that is a win win for us all.

The third Annual get to know your Neighbor Picnic and Ten minute meeting was a great success. Hope more of you will make it next year.

The links to the minutes are posted on the President's Corner.

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.
