ANNUAL REPORTS: |
Regional Fall Seminars 2010 Regional Fall Seminar The ML&SA Regions 1, 5, and 6
hosted their fall seminar on Saturday October 16, 2010 at the Bloomfield
Twp. Auditorium in Oakland County.
The
agenda
was very interesting
and informative. Approximately 25-30 people attended the half day
seminar to learn about invasive weeds and their control. Thanks to
everyone who participated. 2008 Regional Fall Seminar The
MLSA Regions 1, 5, and 6 held their
Regional
Fall Seminar on Saturday October 11, 2008 at the Howell Nature Center
in Howell, MI. Approximately 27 lake association representatives
attended the conference. The MLSA wishes to thank the participants
who attended. If you have topics that you would like to see
discussed at future meetings/seminars, please contact me with your
suggestions. 2007 Regional Fall Seminar The MLSA Regions 1, 5, and 6 held their Regional Fall Seminar on Saturday September 8, 2007 at the Howell Nature Center in Howell Michigan. Approximately 30 people attended the seminar. We had an exciting program filled with excellent presentations. Lake Representatives Meetings The MLSA Regions 1 and 5 hosted a lake representatives meeting on Saturday February 21, 2009 from 1:00 - 4:00 pm at the Hamburg Township Senior Community Center. The meeting was held in conjunction with the Hamburg Township annual CLMP Kick-Off Meeting. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the CLMP program and water quality monitoring in general, to enroll in the 2009 CLMP, and to provide an update on MLSA business. Jo Latimore, from MSU, attended the meeting and did a presentation on the CLMP program. Unfortunately, there was a winter weather snow warning on the day of the meeting and that limited lake representatives and MLSA attendance. Although that was the case, twelve people were able to attend the meeting and learned about the CLMP. The MLSA Could Use Your Help E-Mail List: I would like to generate an email contact list with email addresses for a representative from each of our Region 5 member lake associations and for individual and corporate Region 5 members. At the current time, I do not have a complete list of email addresses for Region 5 MLSA members. Email is a very effective way to pass along important MLSA updates and information to help you keep informed about MLSA business. I am encouraging each lake association president to provide me with an email address for a person in your lake association who can serve as a contact person for your association and for individual and corporate members to provide me with their email information. Please send your email address to: Ginny Himich. Thank you for your help! Happenings on your Lake: if you have experienced something newsworthy on your lake or in your watershed, please provide the information to me. Questions/concerns/news/problems and solutions—I would like to start posting this valuable information on this web site so that viewers can see what our membership is doing. This is a chance for you to tell everyone who visits the site about important accomplishments on your lake or in your watershed. Your accomplishments could help others solve similar issues! Information sharing is a great way for you and your neighboring lakes to develop solutions to common problems.
