Northwood Lake Watershed Annual Meeting


Saturday, July18 is the Northwood Lake Watershed Association Annual Meeting. It will be held at the Northwood Town Beach on Lakeshore Drive at 9:30 a.m. Sara Steiner, Volunteer Lake Assessment Program Coordinator will be the featured speaker. She will speak on “Results and Recommendations of the Volunteer Lake Assessment Program”.


Elections will be held at the meeting and directors from around the lake are needed. Directors represent their neighbors’ views at the NLWA board meetings. The meetings are held March through October. The more representation the board has around the lake, the more and better information the board has in making decisions about milfoil, water quality, education and finances. Directors are needed from all areas of the lake, especially the SLEEPY HOLLOW, LAKE SITES, LAKESHORE DRIVE and TASKER LANE neighborhoods. Please consider becoming a Director.


About the Association: In 1992 the Northwood Lake Watershed Association was formed to preserve and protect the quality of Northwood Lake and its surroundings for the collective interest for lake users.


Since then our activities have included the monitoring and treatment of the ever present milfoil in our lake, water quality testing through the Volunteer Lake Assessment Program, invasive exotic screening through the Lake Host Program, as well as providing educational resources to our members and the lake community at large. Membership is open to anyone who has an interest in Northwood Lake. You don’t have to live on the lake to join. Annual dues are $20 per member (a member can be an individual, family, business or organization). Your dues go to things like milfoil treatment, annual lake vegetation survey and water quality testing programs.


Come join us at the Northwood Town Beach, July 18, for the Annual Meeting.

Chesley Memorial Library Goes Green


Summer is in full swing at the Chesley Memorial Library (despite the icky weather!) and our Summer Reading Programs (we have 3!) are rolling along.  This year we have split the programs into three age groups: children, teens & tweens, and adults.  Children going into Kindergarten up through 5th grade are invited to participate in the Summer Reading Program, which features the theme Going Green At Your Library!  The Summer Reading Club, for teens and tweens in grades 6 and up, features the theme Get Your Green On!  Adults are encouraged to participate in our newest program- Read, Return, Repeat. 


All of our themes this year focus on all things “Green” and the environment.  We are using less paper in our materials, learning about the environment, and all of our activities are featuring reused or recycled materials!  Registration began for all three programs on Wednesday, July 1, and already we have a number of participants!  If you haven’t registered though, you still have time!  Just stop by the library and ask about Summer Reading!


For complete details regarding these programs please visit our web site at www.chesleylib.com or call the library at 942-5472.

 



Reading Challenge


I, Danielle- Youth Librarian at the Chesley Memorial Library, hereby Challenge all Summer Reading Program and Summer Reading Club participants to read for a combined 50,000 minutes over the summer.  If the 50,000 minute mark is reached by the end of the programs I will dye my hair either Pink or Green!  Vote for your color choice at the library!  (As an added bonus: If you win this challenge, my hair will be either pink or green for my vacation at Walt Disney World!)
