📢 Lake St. Helen Water Level Discussion – Community Information

The St. Helen Lake Association is aware of the recent communication regarding the potential consideration of maintaining a consistent, year-round water level for Lake St. Helen. As this discussion moves forward, we want to ensure that the voices of our community members — especially shoreline property owners — are heard directly by decision-makers.

Water level management is a complex issue that can affect shoreline structures, aquatic habitat, winter recreation, erosion patterns, wetlands, and the overall long-term health of the lake. At this time, the Association has not taken a formal position, as we are still gathering information to better understand the potential benefits and concerns associated with a set water level.

We strongly encourage all property owners, particularly those whose property abuts the lakeshore, to review the information they received and submit their individual comments directly to the Roscommon County Board of Commissioners.

📅 Deadline: February 27
📧 Email: [email protected]

Direct feedback from residents is an important part of the review process, and your input helps ensure that any future decisions reflect the needs and perspectives of those most impacted.

The St. Helen Lake Association remains committed to responsible stewardship of Lake St. Helen and to supporting thoughtful, well-informed decisions that prioritize the long-term health and sustainability of our lake and community.

BRRRRR ❄️ — you know it’s a true St. Helen kind of day when the wind chill bites… but the fun still wins!

A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who came out and made our first Winter Fun Fest such a success! From the brave souls flying down the hill in the Cardboard Sled Race, to the fearless Polar Pluggers taking the icy plunge and possibly checking something off their bucket list, to warming up afterward at the Soup & Chili Cook-Off featuring 7 delicious dishes — this community showed up and showed off!

We want to give special appreciation to Richfield Township Public Safety for their hard work preparing the ice and park and keeping everyone safe throughout the day. We also thank the Chamber of Commerce for their continued support in helping make events like this possible.

Most of all — THANK YOU to everyone who bundled up, battled the cold, and joined in the laughs, cheers, and winter memories. This is what small-town community spirit looks like ❤️
Already looking forward to next year!

We are looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow at Winter Fun Fest 2026.
