Annual Fourth of July Boat Parade
4:00pm, Saturday, July 4th, 2020 Same lineup as previously done. Boaters gather in Hideaway Bay at 4:00pm. We're sticking with our new afternoon parade time! This gives family and friends time to spend the day preparing and decorating their boat for the parade during this super busy weekend of the summer. The Fourth of July Boat parade contest is a fun time for families/friends to get together and be creative with their watercraft! Go big or go minimal. It’s just fun to join in and be a part of this event. There are 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners with prizes. The 1st place winners get to be the next year’s judges! So fun! Let’s keep the tradition going and get your themes planned out now! Last years winners, The Knisely Family, will be judging the parade this year. They’ll be passing on the Lake 26 traveling trophy on to this year’s lucky winners! Get your thinking caps on for your boat theme! Always a great time by all! Annual Chinese Mystery Snail Contest (lake association members only) Once again, the Lake 26 Association is offering $100 to the person or family that collects and removes the most snails over the summer. Snail collectors can report their haul (number of pails) at this summer’s annual dinner and the $100 cash prize will be awarded to the snail collector with the most snails! Congrats to last year’s winner, Dave Luka! Currently the only invasive species in our lake is the Chinese mystery snail. They’re the same snails that are used in aquariums. Never release the contents of an aquarium into the lake! Member Association Annual Picnic at Luther Park Camp (lake association members only) 5:00 - 7:00 p.m., Saturday, August 29, 2020 Please join us for our annual dinner at Luther Park Camp. Our organization’s bylaws call for an annual meeting, but it’s also just fun to get together for great food with lake neighbors. Beer, wine, and soft drinks will be provided. Adults are $12; children are $6. Pre-register or pay at the door; Saturday, August 29, Luther Park Camp We had such a success with the silent auction the past few years that we are bringing it back! We raised about $588 for our association through great auction items all donated by lake members. If you have a special skill with crafts, cooking, woodworking, etc. and would like to donate items, please give us a shout and we’ll make sure you can add your goodies to the auction. Last year we had homemade bird houses, blueberries, photographs, pies, Lake 26 hats & can koozies, artwork, candles, etc. Please email Lori Knisely to donate your silent auction item(s); [email protected] Download the Member Association Annual Membership/Picnic Form and send to our Treasurer. Instructions included.

Greetings everyone. Quick update here to the blog to make visitors and residents aware that Lake26 has taken advantage of the BCLRA cleaning station program. The sign you see below, and the first set of wash materials has been provided by the BCLRA. Dave Luka provided major expertise in attaching the sign to lumber, attaching equipment to the sign, and sinking it in the ground for us. Tony Bauer worked out the particulars of the sign placement with local authorities and was on-hand this morning to dig holes with Dave.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
We need all of us members to be aware of the lake's responsibility here. If you or your family or guests are at the landing, please check in on the condition of all the materials and solution. Please communicate. Please consider whether you can participate more financially or as a volunteer for the lake to keep this station in good working order and full of supplies. We do need someone EVERY DAY of the summer to check on this station. While we already have a couple folks raising their hand, it's fair to share the burden more widely. Please contact the board if you think you can help. RESOURCES If you have any questions about the program, the board will likely be able to help, though additional context can always be obtained directly from county resources: Tom Boisvert Burnett County Aquatic Invasive Species Coordinator at Burnett County [email protected] (715) – 349-2109 Ext. 1382 Thank you for continuing to support YOUR beautiful lake. Spencer Knisely | President TWENTY-SIX LAKE PROPERTY OWNERS' ASSOCIATION INC. (952) 818-4548 www.lake26.org Greetings everybody.
As a part of our fiduciary responsibility to you, our members, we're taking a step forward to enhance our tools for managing the expenses and resources of the organization. This work will make it easier for us to stay on top of our various tax filings as well, and will ensure that we keep our 501c3 status in good standing. Part of setting up these new tools and workflows involves the implementation of a comprehensive and straightforward chart of accounts that takes into consideration the present and future needs of our charitable organization. We're setting it all up in our Quickbooks Online account, and could use the insights of a skilled bookkeeper or CPA to review our simple plan and give it a thumbs up. If you are someone (or know someone) who could help us out with this insight, it would be greatly appreciated. Contact any of us on the board to raise your hand. Thanks! Contributed by: S.Knisely The most recently updated copy of the Twenty-Six Lake Property Owner's Association's bylaws appears to be from 2005. The 2018-2019 board is reviewing whether changes will be needed or desired in order to keep the association's mission clear and consistent with its filings, and with the bylaws of other lake associations. Attached below is the current document.
