Reflections On The Lake
|
"Our biggest challenge is to keep the lake as healthy as possible for the generations that come after us. I think that the PLIA is definitely on the right track. I especially liked their video that showed how to landscape our waterfronts to promote a more healthy lake and a better habitat for the animals." Phyllis Rehill |
| Lake Hosts Catch Exotic Species at Fundy Boat Launch |

The Lake Host program is already in full swing with volunteers working both the Fundy and State Park boat launches during the weekends. And, it is a really good thing that they are there. Saturday morning, May 3rd, Lake Host Volunteer Therese Thompson found an invasive species of plant, Water Chestnut, on a fisherman's boat trailer just before they launched their boat into the lake. Water Chestnut is on the NH Dept. of Environmental Services "Frightful Fourteen" most invasive exotic species list. These plants are some of the most feared species due to their ability to choke surface waters, harm native vegetation and wildlife, impact recreation, and lower property values. Thank you Lake Host Program participants for another "Save"!
