Let the Summer Begin!

17 May 2024 | 0 Comments

Whether you think of this long weekend as Victoria Day Weekend, The May Two Four, Cottage Opening Weekend or the beginning of summer, it’s here. If a visit to your Haliburton waterfront property is in your plans, be advised that the blackflies and mosquitoes will be there to greet you. If you spend any time along your waterfront or on the water, you may see early signs of returning or new Eurasian Watermilfoil. No need for alarm – this is our new normal. The EWM Working Group is already prepping for spring surveillance and commercial diver assisted control activities (July 16-19). Once again our valued corps of volunteers will be at the ready to assist as needed.

If you need reminding or are new to our lakes we offer two short videos that will inform you about EWM:

No matter what you call this weekend or where you spend it, be safe and enjoy it.

Just in time for the first long weekend of the summer.  In keeping with our obligations with Canada’s Private Buoy Regulations under the Canada Shipping Act, this is to notify that the 10 buoys covering Spruce Lake and Outlet Bay have been deployed.
 
A special thanks to Gary Hunt for his help.
 
Another notice will be posted when the buoys in Drag Lake have been deployed.
 
We hope that everyone will have a safe and enjoyable boating season.
