Fishing on Long Lake with a Guide

The Richards family was inspired by our LLAA speaker at the annual meeting last year and hired a fishing guide for a day trip on Long Lake.

They had a beautiful June day.  The fish, however, (in keeping with Long Lake tradition) were especially finicky.

Only their son caught fish.

They all had fun.

               Thanks for sharing your adventure!

Long Lake Memories: Annual meeting and 4th of July

It has been a fun filled weekend on Long Lake with our annual meeting on Saturday, June 29th and our 4th of July Flotilla.  We know there were many picnics held around the lake as well as many fireworks displays.  Here are some of the pictures of the events.

Congratulations to our new LLAA board members:  Ken Retzer, Robert Nelson, Jim Seifert, and Dawn Hammerschmidt.  A very big thank you to Monika Wilkins for her service as President of LLAA and to Betty Larsen for her service as secretary.  Thank you to Jack Derr and Ron Taggart for your service on the board also.  (The Board Members page on this website will be updated soon.) 

Shoreline Buffer Zone Presentation given at Annual Meeting

Thank you Shannon Henrickson of Touch of Eden Landscaping!

Shannon gave us all a good overview of Long Lake shorelines and ways we can help protect the lake from the hazards of erosion.  Many people wanted to have his slides and notes in order to review the information and these are the links (below) to that information - one to the color slides and the other to Shannon's notes.
