Long Lake Skate Party
Sunday, Jan 21, 2024
On January 21st, the LLNA set out to host a Fire & Ice Pancake Breakfast at 10am. Turns out it was only 15 degrees! A quick Plan B and instead we met at noon at the Town Beach at Long Lake for a skate party and community chat keeping warm with Cocoa & Coffee. Such a wonderful way to catch up with neighbors and enjoy the icy day on Long Lake!
Invasive Plant Pull around Long Lake
Saturday, May 20 2023 8:30 am - 12 pm
(Rain Date Sunday, May 21 2023)
LLNA is organizing an Invasive Plant Pull. Bring your shears, loppers and boots and help us out
Meet at 8:30 am at the corner of Lakeshore Drive and Beach Drive and learn to identify and safely cut the plants. Between 9-12 pm we will be there cutting and stacking plant material on pallets. We hope to have many hands on deck to make the job light. See you there
INVASIVENESS AND WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT THEM
Sunday, May 7 2023 10-12 pm
Meet at the Beach Drive, Lakeshore Drive corner by the entrance to the beach and walk the Wetlands area plus the perimeter of the lake to Aspen Road.
We will learn to identify and remove Invasive vegetation, talk about safety around the removal and how to persist in the work to keep our shores clear and healthy. Take this work home to your properties and make the neighborhood a habitat for native plants and insects. The walk will be followed by a removal date on May 20 to put our skills to good use.
Mike Bald will be leading the walk.
Mike Bald manages terrestrial invasive plants across New England, offering non-chemical services to landowners since the 2011 growing season. Some of Mike's focal areas are "the danger plants", solarizing as a management method, planning for control work, and individual / team safety considerations.
