As the new president of MLSA and still your region three vice-president I want to urge each of you to send someone from your association to our 47th annual conference in Grayling on April 25, 26 and 27th.  A lot of time and energy has been given to see that you come away with valuable information for your members.  We have changed the format somewhat this year so that you will have time to visit some of the attractions in the area of Grayling if so desired.  We are also asking that you select a delegate from those attending so they may be a part of the MLSA Annual Corporate Meeting at 4:30 pm on Saturday.  We want to hear from you at this meeting as you and your lakes are what we are about.  I really hope to see many of you at this conference.  You can get information on the conference, where to stay and registration forms for both on MLSA Conference web page or the February issue of the Riparian magazine.

The Spring Lake representative meeting will be held Saturday, May 24th at the Van Buren Library in Decatur from 9:30 A M to 12:30 P M.  I'm sorry about the change in date but the library had something come up and asked us to change.  I will send reminders later and am looking forward to seeing all of you in May.

Our fall meeting will take place on Saturday, September 27th, same place and time.

I will book a Wednesday in October very shortly for our Fall Seminar.  It will probably be on the 15th or the 22nd.
