Lake Manager’s Report – August 2024

1. A request for proposal to conduct our annual state required inspections of the Dam and Sediment Drying Facility this fall has been received from the MPOA engineers. The dam inspection has been scheduled for October 18th at 11 am. 

2. Efforts to develop a sales market for the dredged sediment continue. The raised garden beds established by the MPOA seem to show that the dredged sediment is very beneficial for plant growth, when compared to different commercially available products.

Starting with Venetian Night, Friday July 5th Thank You to all who participated in this year's drizzly Venetian Night!! Everyone around the lake enjoyed the show. We look forward to seeing you and your decorated boats again next year, along with more! The winning boat, chosen by various judges around the lake, was the Wonder Lake Marina Barge.
