Final Spring Updates

The major items for the spring opening have been completed.  A big thank you to everyone who worked and cleaned the grounds yesterday.  As many of you know I had to leave very early Saturday morning due to an emergency at home so I want to say an extra thank you to board members Tara, Sean, and Troy who helped to coordinate everything yesterday in my absence.

I also want to send another thank you to Justin Nieters (site 16).  Justin and I have been at the campground since early March working on repairing ice heaves on the shoreline, removing the abandoned culvert on the south side of the grounds, and overflow lot debris cleanup.  His help has been invaluable.

Now that the water is on, do not forget to install your vacuum breaker as these are mandated by the Department of Health.  If you do not have one, they can be purchased at the hardware store or our staff will install one for a $20 charge.  

Starting this week, Mike will be working Wednesday through Monday.  Haley Shereck will help with mowing and other odds and ends.  For those that volunteered to help with the pool, we will coordinate a small training session as the pool gets opened and ready for the season.

For parking, you are to park one vehicle at your site and additional vehicles and trailers are to be parked in the overflow lot.  There are new tags and vehicle identification cards in the supply box on the side of the Gathering Room, please identify your items in case you need to be contacted.

Finally, a few other items to be on the lookout for as we get in to May:

  • Midnight Sun is starting up the pool tomorrow (May 6th) and the pool should be ready to go by Memorial Day Weekend.
  • Benson Excavating is installing a new drainage culvert under the north road of the campground this week.
  • Hazlewood Corporation has been asked for new games for the game room.  Specifically we asked for Buck Hunter and Top Golf, we hope to see these games soon.
  • Boyd Electric will be doing electrical work on the east side of the campground this week or early next.  No outages are expected.
  • There is no membership meeting on Memorial Day Weekend, however board members will be available for a one hour informal Q&A session on Saturday at 2:00 in the Gathering Room.  

Again, thank you to everyone and see you at the lake!
