Last summer we had a lively discussion at the annual meeting about lake levels and high water markers on the lake.Following through on our promise to keep our lake members educated, we are having a meeting with Jacob Frie, Brainerd West: Aitkin/Crow Wing DNR Hydrologist. The meeting is on Wednesday April 9th, 1:30-2:30, at the Aitkin Community Library in the back meeting room.
We understand that many of you are not up at the lake yet this spring or during the week. You can access the meeting virtually using the link below. A recording will also be available following the meeting.
