2024 Summer Music Dates (Updated)

THE SUMMER MUSIC DATES ARE BOOKED

Soon they will be plugged into the calendar on this website.
In the meantime, HERE IS A SNEAK PEEK:

(Updated on April 5— All updates marked. Holiday weekends are marked with a star.)

Free Tree Giveaway

The Sussex County Municipal Utilities Authority (SCMUA) is starting up their free tree giveaway again this spring. They are trying to increase the tree canopy cover in the Paulins Kill lake communities that has been lost to the emerald ash borer. SCMUA still has funding to provide 4-5' containerized trees to anyone living in Crandon Lakes who would want them ( max 5 while supplies last).  Participants just need to be living in the lake community; they do not have to have lost ash trees on their property to be able to participate.

SCMUA staff can also be available to help those who need help getting their trees planted.

Attached is a pdf copy with the description of the program as well as a website link ( https://forms.gle/WoWjyfVFRP9MWdS17 ) to the registration page sign up.

Fall Leaves

As the Fall Season is upon us and the leaves will soon be on the ground; we have a few reminders from the Lake Resource Committee:  

Please Keep Leaves Out of The Lake – Very Important as we continue to fight our weed and algae issues: 

 Leaves should never be blown or raked directly into the lake.  Although some may think it is silly to worry about any single home’s impact on the lake, in reality it is the cumulative effect of everyone working together for the health of our lake that makes a difference.  

Leaves are organic and consist of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus.  These are exactly the same components that help aquatic plants and algae thrive in our lakes. When leaves fall off trees and decay, they release those nutrients back into the environment. Organic material such as leaves take a long time to decompose at the bottom of the lake where low oxygen levels slow down the decomposition.  Several inches of accumulated decomposing leaves turn into “muck” on the lake bottom.  Putting leaves in the water is like fertilizing our lake for next year’s algae growth.

Please DO NOT:

• Blow or rake leaves directly into the lake, nearby drainage ditches, streams, streets or storm drains.

• Pile leaves close to the lake where wind will likely carry leaves into the water.

Instead consider the following environmentally friendly options:

• If you have lawn where the leaves fall, you can leave the leaves where they fall.  Leaves provide winter cover and insulation for pollinators and other important invertebrates.  If you can’t leave your whole lawn covered, consider allowing your planting beds to remain covered over the winter months.  For the remainder of your lawn you might consider mulching the leaves in place with a power lawn mower.

• Compost your leaves.  This can be as simple as putting leaves into a pile.  Create your compost pile away from the lake and where leaves won’t blow into the lake over the winter.  To speed the decomposition of the leaves into compost, you can use a compost bin or occasionally turn and water the area.  This will eventually produce a beneficial soil additive that can be spread on lawn or garden areas.
