Hello milfoil hunters and gatherers! This is your last call for submitting your milfoil volunteer hours. If you scouted, marked, gathered fragments or harvested plants this summer and fall, make sure to log your hours. The LRA receives a grant from the State of Vermont for our milfoil control efforts, and it’s important that we demonstrate the involvement of our volunteers. Thanks to all who have helped us out - every minute counts! 💪

Here’s the link to the handy Google sheet, but message us if you need to send your hours to us another way. bit.ly/milfoil2026 (Link also in bio and comments).

Supporting Local Art: Our Story
This special lakefront series supports a meaningful cause. For over 75 years, the art and craft center at Fletcher Farm has anchored the Okemo Valley. In 2025, we evolved and rebranded as Create Together.
We’ve dramatically expanded our studios, but many of our neighbors don’t know we are here yet! By joining us on the dock, you are helping us raise vital funds, meet future friends, and shape the next chapter of local arts.
📍 Event Details
• Hosts & Partners: Proudly supported by our Lake Rescue and Round Pond neighbors. Special thanks to Amit Khanna and LaValley Building Supply.
• Location: The exact Round Pond address will be emailed to you prior to the event. (Please check your spam filter to ensure you receive it!)

As you wait out the rain this weekend, remember to catch-up on logging your hours spent this summer in collecting milfoil fragments, hand harvesting, or surveying & reporting growth areas. Thanks everybody for helping us keep milfoil growth at bay! Here’s the link to our Google sheet (link also in bio): https://bit.ly/milfoil2026

It's time to log your milfoil collecting hours if you have spent any time this summer on the water collecting pieces of this invasive plant. The State of Vermont is funding a grant to help with our efforts to contain milfoil and maintain our lakes' health, but in the final report we need to demonstrate the commitment of residents volunteering. Please visit the following link to record your hours.

You can also request a hard copy sheet from George Thomson. Please indicate on the form your activities, including collecting of fragments, hand harvesting, or monitoring/survey.

Your support will help ensure that we and guests to the region can all enjoy the lakes for recreation, swimming, boating, tubing, paddleboarding, and fishing!

One of the topics raised at our recent Annual Meeting was the proposed development at 490 East Lake Road, above Archibald Cove, and the potential impact of stormwater runoff and sedimentation on our lakes and surrounding properties.

As everyone who attended heard throughout the morning, protecting our lakes increasingly requires us to think about what happens throughout the entire watershed, particularly as we continue to experience more significant storm events.

A stormwater construction permit for this project is currently under review by the State of Vermont, and the public comment period closes September 2.

The LRA shares the concerns that have been raised about potential runoff and downstream impacts and believes it is important that our members are aware of the opportunity to participate in the State’s review process.

We encourage you to review the project and any additional information you feel necessary to reach your own conclusion. If you have a point of view, we urge you to submit a public comment before September 2.
