Reflections On The Lake

"I first came up in the 1930’s; I grew up in East Boston. So, being a city boy, this was really God’s country. To me, this place was another world. It was hidden away, nobody knew about it. There were no buildings at all--it was wilderness. The deer used to come down to the water here and bears too. Every night you’d hear the coyotes.

1st Annual Campfire Night a Soggy Success Print E-mail
Written by PLIA Staff   

Over 125 members signed up to attend the first Annual PLIA Campfire Night event on Friday July 28th. Due to some nasty thunder and lightning and heavy downpours a half hour before the event, the party started off a little slow. PLIA staff setting up the event were preparing themselves to eat the 100 hamburgers and 60 hotdogs themselves.  Thankfully, around 6:30pm the skies cleared and members started trickling in. By 7:00pm the grills were in full gear and the live music had started! Altogether, 50 members braved the elements to make this years Campfire Night a success.

A little rain never stopped the volleyball game

Whiffle ball was a hit with kids of all ages

This table forgot the words but, nobody noticed

Live music was a hit with all ages

This pretty much sums it up. Fun, fun, fun!!!
