2026 Annual Meeting
The Annual Meeting was held Saturday June 13th, 9 a.m. at Lakeside Golf Club. Guest Speakers included Jodi Teich, Otter Tail County Engineer, and Wes Keller from Houston Engineering. They discussed the Hwy 51 Culvert Project. As well, Steve Henry, Aquatic Services Lake Technician, provided information on Curly Leaf Pond Weed.
There were no Fun Theme ideas submitted at the annual meeting for the 2027 Boat Parade, so next year’s theme (2027) will still have 2 categories: Patriotic, and an Open Category. The Open category will include entrants with any decorated boat that does not follow the patriotic theme.
