This year’s annual summer picnic will take place at Holiday Acres on Sunday, August 17, 2008 at 12:30. Please bring your own meat and a dish to share with your neighbors. Beverages and grill will be provided. We’ve been having great weather this summer, with temps in the high 70’s low 80’s and dipping down into the 50’s at night. Perfect for picnics!

I have some news…we have a new website for the Association!
You can find it at:

I’ve only posted a couple times until I could send the site to everyone. I’m going to try to always post the Flyers for meetings and events as well as interesting Lake news. So if you have any questions, newsy items worthy of posting, or great photos you’d like to share, send them to me in an email and I will try to post them. You might have to bear with me a little on this as I’m not totally “site savvy” and it may take me awhile to figure things out. So if there were anyone out there who would like to lend his or her expertise, I would gladly welcome it. So check it out and let me know how I’m doing.

Northwoods Art Tour

If you're looking for something fun to do this weekend give the Northwoods Art Tour a try. It runs July 25-27 from 9am - 5pm daily. Check the website for all the details and to download a map. www.northwoodsarttour.com/ If you look closely you might even see one of your neighbors there giving a torch demonstration. Have I peeked your interest yet? For more info try this website www.northernlightglass.blogspot.com

Elderberry Time

The Elderberry is out in force right now, it's such a wonderful color of red. If you have any in your yards, have you noticed any Cedar Waxwings? We've had a few, not as many as last summer, I think our June was a little too cool so there aren't quite as many berries. We're still waiting on the kiosk progress, hopefully we'll have some news soon. But many thanks to the workers who have graciously volunteered their services, during a busy time. We even had a Lemonade stand set up by the Hodell kids while their parents were manning their watch. Now that's innovative! Wish I had gotten down there for a picture!
