I would like to thank the Association members for a good turnout at the meeting on Saturday, and for the food that was brought for the picnic and the raffle items. From the new membership, donations, apparel, duck sales, raffle, and 50/50 we raised $676.00. After the meeting I dropped off cans/bottle at Bobbi’s, and she had checks for us in the amount of $696.75 for the returns to date. Overall, it was a good Monday morning’s bank deposit. Please continue to drop off your cans & bottles for the rest of the season.
As discussed at the meeting I would ask that you join Mark and I for a work party on Sunday July 17th from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM. There is a large patch of Fanwort in an inlet on second Lake I would like to remove. We will need people in kayaks supplied with rakes and cutters. This inlet is to the right of Mike & Pam King’s camp if you were in the water looking at the camp. I would appreciate any help that morning.
Our next Association meeting is August 13th at 10:00 AM, and our annual Duck Race will follow the meeting on Shingle Mill Creek. After the race there will be hot dogs, chili, and desert for a small get-together. Duck cookies will be for sale at the meeting.
The George Henry Annual Fishing Derby is August 21st. Registration time starts at 7:00 AM. Donations for the participants would be welcome, please drop them off to Denise Hartmann or myself. We will have a sign-up sheet for volunteers to help with the Derby at the August meeting. Denise will need boats on the Lake for weighing, help with registration and set-up in the morning. The Derby has always been a fun day for kids and adults alike.
If you have any questions, please call me at 315-283-3477.
Enjoy these Summer days and stay safe,
Mary Augustus
