Lower Lake Support Needed
Support is needed from all Crandon Lakes residents —
This letter was originally posted by Jessica Weinberg:
Lower Crandon Residents,
We've written a request to the town (of Stillwater) asking them to treat the lily pads on the lower lake. This issue was first discussed at the last meeting and will be further discussed in more detail at the July 19th meeting.
The town of Stillwater has asked Aquatic Analysist's, Inc. to come and do a presentation on "possible" treatment options/ lake management at the next town meeting. Nothing will change without the support and input of the people that reside in the lake community.
Please come to the town meeting July 19 at 7pm and show your support for cleaning up the Lower Lake.
Treatment of Lily Pads on Lower Crandon Lake
July 19, 2016
7pm
@ the Stillwater Municipal Building
Lower Crandon Lake is currently owned by Stillwater Township. Residents of Lower Crandon are members of CLCC. Please show your support and represent Crandon as a solid community.
The meeting at Stillwater Town Hall is being added to the Crandon Lakes Calendar to act as a reminder.
If you would like to be sent an email reminder leading up to this meeting, please sign up here.
July 30th Update!
The date remains the same for our annual gathering ... the cuisine and time however, have changed ...
We had originally scheduled the Annual Lake Pig Roast for Saturday, July 30th at 6 pm. We will still be gathering on this date ... for a STEAK BUST AT 3 PM!
CLCC will provide the STEAK, burgers, dogs, rolls and condiments, and some salads. We ask everyone to bring a small covered dish down to share.
... So head down to the Pavilion on July 30th at 3 pm to meet your neighbors!
A Great Loss
Our lake community has suffered a great loss with the recent passing of Ron "Spike" Spehalski.
It is with heavy heart that I report to you that one of our founding fathers here at Crandon Lakes has passed away at home today. Spike (Ron Spehalski) died early this morning (Thursday, June 30th).
His arrangements are not yet final, but apparently will take place next Tuesday and Wednesday in Bayonne New Jersey. As information comes in, I will forward it. I am thinking if we need to, I may look into the feasibility of taking a bus to Bayonne next Tuesday evening. If there is any interest in going on this bus, please forward to me (John Nelson).
This is indeed a very sad day for our community, as most of you are aware that we would not have such things as our office, pavilion, dam, condo law, etc., just to name a few without Spike's dramatic input.
— John Nelson
