Good Reason To Cheer!

We are hearing the sounds of the Winter greetings around our Long Lake that is frozen over about three-fourths of the way now.  Folks are keeping a watch on the webcam to see the swans swimming about in the deep part of the lake and wondering when the ice will totally freeze.  There are a few fish houses near the south access.  Generosity continues as the New Year approaches!  The Long Lake Area Association Foundation has raised a total of $23,610 for the fund drive which started July 1, 2015 and ends June 30, 2016.  To Every Heart, Gratitude, Joy, Light, and Peace!

The current LLAA Foundation Fund Drive which started 7/1/2015 and ends on 6/30/2016 has raised $20,735 as of 10/31/2015 primarily for AIS Watercraft Inspection / Education.  Any excess funds raised will be set aside in a quick response contingency fund for any AIS or other water quality related event.  A special "Thank You" to all the families that have participated thus far!
