Milfoil Pictures and Lake Host Training Saturday 6/10

What Does Milfoil Look Like?

Are you curious what milfoil looks like?  Below are pictures of a small milfoil plant that was alive in Beaver Lake last summer and part of a plant that was removed from the lake.  Plants can grow to multiple feet high by multiple feet wide, which were found here in Beaver Lake last year and removed.  If you find milfoil, please do not touch it, pull it or break off a piece because the smallest fragment that breaks off can float away and a new plant can form thereby spreading milfoil around the lake.  Instead, notify BLIA at blia@beaver-lake.org of the approximate location and the Weed Watcher team will locate it and record the GPS location and then notify the State for safe removal.

Lake Host Training

We are conducting a Lake Host training this Saturday at my house, 24 Coles Grove Rd. from 10:00 am until we finish. Coffee and breakfast pastries will be served.

There have been a number of people that have expressed interest in volunteering at the boat ramp.  As of now, the Sunday 9-11am spot is available.  I would like to use this spot for rotating volunteers who don’t want to commit to every weekend but would still like to help out.  If that describes you, then please come to the training so you can volunteer on occassion.

In order to volunteer, you must be trained in the Lake Host program. More information about the program is available here: https://nhlakes.org/education/lake-host/

Also, if you are coming to the training please become familiar with the training manual found here: https://nhlakes.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/2017-lake-host-inspector-manual.pdf

There is a great deal of information here so please feel free to skim some of it.

If you ARE coming to the training on Saturday please RSVP at blia@beaver-lake.org or roberttompkins@beaver-lake.org

I look forward to seeing you Saturday.

Rob Tompkins

President, BLIA
