Water Level - Good start to the season

After an abnormally dry Q4 2022 and January/February, our March and April snow and rains have made up our deficit of water. Our lake level is currently at 931.55 which is about 1/2 inch above our ideal level. Hopefully we will continue to get some additional rains (no snow) to make up for the evaporation that we will get throughout the season.

Updated Goose Remediation During April - May

Goose Busters visited the lake for the first time the week of April 17th. They are expected to return the week of May 1st to collect eggs and destroy nests. Please watch and report geese activity in your area.  

PLEASE Contact us if geese are loitering in your area because there may be nests. Tell us the best description of the area of concern from the lake view. Often you will see a pair, then just the male swimming in the area.

Once the eggs are hatched, we are unable to do anything. Geese droppings contribute to the elevation of E coli in the lake. Removal of the eggs and nests will encourage the geese to migrate north. Every little bit helps:
* 2021 we removed 3 nests with a total of 19 eggs
* 2022 we removed 4 nests with a total of 26 eggs.

Thank you for your support.
