Lake Information
This section contains information about things you can do to make our lake more environmentally friendly (the Intro to Lakes slideshows).
We have also added a video presentation about a lake restoration project downstate which used Phoslock, which we will be using this summer to control nutrients in the lake that spur algae growth. Morrison Lake, the subject of the video, had far greater problems than we do and their results, as shown in the video are encouraging.
