Yikes! Now that fall is upon us, it's time to tuck the garden away for the winter. There are a lot of weeds to pull and deadhead. We'll meet at 10 am on Saturday, October 14th to work on it. If you can come and help, we'd really appreciate it. Bring your gloves and gardening tools, and we'll do it quickly.

Should mother nature decide otherwise or if you're unable to make it on the designated day, we encourage you to head over in your spare time. Even a few minutes spent pulling weeds or doing some deadheading can make a significant difference.

Thanks for your help!

We are looking for a couple people to help us remove buoys on Monday, Oct. 9th. We will pull buoys out of the lake, arrange them on the shore, and remove lights from some of them. It should take 1-2 hours at most. Plan to meet at the City Dock at about 10am.

The Boat Parade Theme this year will be ‘Birch Lake Wildlife’! Gather your friends and family, spark your imagination, and let it run wild, and get ready to create a jaw-dropping display that will have everyone cheering.

Whether you choose to go for a realistic portrayal of your favorite animal or put your own creative spin on things, the Birch Lake Wildlife boat parade promises to be a blast for all ages. So, grab your sunscreen, put on your captain's hat, and join us for a day of fun and festivities on the water!

This year’s July 4th BLA Boat Parade theme is “Birch Lake Wildlife”

Boats and pontoons will begin in Little Birch at 1 PM. This year we will meet near the entrance to the “back bay” on the south side of Little Birch because we have placed a loon platform on the south side of the channel.

Help Needed to Clean up the Birch Lake Association Garden

Dear Members of the Birch Lake Association,

As we head into the summer season, it is time to start preparing our community garden for the warmer months ahead. The Birch Lake Association Garden is a beautiful space that brings joy to all who visit it, but it requires maintenance and care to keep it looking its best.

To that end, we are organizing a garden cleanup party on May 27 from 9-12. We are looking for volunteers to help with tasks such as weeding, pruning, and mulching. No prior gardening experience is necessary; we just need your enthusiasm and willingness to pitch in.

We would greatly appreciate your help in making the Birch Lake Association Garden a beautiful and welcoming space for everyone to enjoy. If you are interested in joining us, please let us know by adding your name, email and phone number to this list. We will be in touch.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Sincerely,

Shirley Johnson

Birch Lake Association Garden Committee Member
