Hello all, another summer is rapidly approaching.
As most of the PLA members are aware we have again contracted with Aqualogic to Harvest Milfoil from the most infested areas of the Upper lake this summer.
They are scheduled to spend 15 days on the lake broken down to 3 stages of 5 days each.
The first stage begins this Saturday June 1st and they will work for 5 consecutive days, weather permitting.
I’d like to reach out to anyone available to begin marking plants starting now and continuing over the weekend and early next week in the Narrows area, the Eastern Bay and around Grass Island.
Markers can be picked up anytime at 336 Fraternaland Road, they are in crates by the shed, you can’t miss them.
Let me know if anyone would like to lead a sweep in any of the areas and I can contact the volunteer scouts to assist.
Another way to assist is to be present for a period of time during the Harvesting to point out plants and pick up any stray fragments, it’s quite easy, a butterfly net is helpful.
Everyone’s efforts help contribute to keeping our lake the “Paradise” we all enjoy and are very much appreciated.
I hope to see you on the lake.
