Summer "Sounds" On The Lake Kick Off The 2017-18 Fund Drive

The sounds of boat motors, birds calls, and children's laughter fills the air this Sat morning, July 1st here on Long Lake. It is the beginning of the "July 4th extended weekend / holiday! We begin the 2017-18 Fund Drive for Our Long Lake Area Association Foundation today. We have two generous donors who are leading the way today already! As we mentioned in the LLAA Annual Meeting last Saturday, we are raising funds for watercraft inspection / education, for a rapid response fund if aquatic invasive species occurs plus continuing to protect, preserve, and enhance the quality of Long Lake and its environs, as the LLAA Foundation purpose states. We are at $2,000 and building strong towards our goal of $20,000.
