Pike Lake Neighbors Recruitment
As the calendar moves into spring and summer, planning activities for Curly Leaf Pondweed control this year in Pike Lake and the Turtle River are beginning to accelerate. Your help and participation would be appreciated and very valuable.
Late last summer, we established an organization to manage Invasive Species activities called Pike Lake Neighbors, Inc., and signed up several members. We are now in the process of planning first (or set of) membership meetings to formally adopt bylaws, dues, and elect officers.
We have two separate email lists, this one: neighbors@pikelakeneighbors.org with everyone on the lake, and a separate one: members@pikelakeneighbors.org for those who explicitly told us, after establishment in August, that they intend to be members of Pike Lake Neighbors, Inc.
Unfortunately, the Contacts Update Form on the website has not been working right since we changed the website domain name. It’s fixed now. So, if you have signed up with form over the fall and winter, please do so again, or send email directly to duanesilkworth@comcast.net
If you have already signed up successfully, you should be getting separate emails from members@pikelakeneighbors.org and you don’t need to do anything. But if you don’t see such a separate email today, and you want to be invited and involved, please sign up at https://pikelakeneighbors.org/members/contact-update-form/
By the way, check your spam or junk mail folder, because sometimes these email list messages are sent there by your email systems.
The adopted constitution states: Membership in the Organization shall be open to any individual that (a) subscribes to the purposes of the Organization, and (b) owns or leases property within one mile of Pike Lake, or (c) resides on or within one mile of Pike Lake at least one month each year, or (d) is the spouse, adult child, parent, sibling, or adult grandchild of an individual described in (b) or (c).
