Dear Members, Neighbors and Lake Lovers:  

June 3, 2021: For the second year in a row, we have nesting Loon's on Pierce Island!  To do your part to help ensure that all goes smoothly,  please keep  away from the nest, which is marked by floating buoys like the one shown at the right. 

Spofford Lake can again brag about hosting nesting eagles and loons which is a credit to  the watershed's environment and the consideration of its human inhabitants. 

In other news:

• If not done already, it's  time  to renew your  membership in the SLA.  Doing so is quick and easy; mail in a check or log into your SLA account and follow the prompts.  If you don’t already have an account, we invite you to set one up.  

• SLA Store is open for holiday business, the 4th of July, that is.  Order soon and be ready to show off your SLA gear during the annual boat parade.   

• The SLA will soon execute an agreement with the NH Division of Parks and Recreation to help maintain Pierce Island as a "natural unmanaged area.”  SLA volunteers will keep the trails clean, the brush out of the way and the public on notice of 'rules of the road.”  We are scheduling a workday in early July and are looking for volunteers.  Sign up at  Our Volunteers.

• Last, the annual newsletter is coming soon, mid-June is our goal.  Will it be delivered to the correct mailing address?  That is up to you.  Hardcopy mailings are sent to “Preferred Mailing Address” field in your SLA account.   Please check to make sure your account is up-to-date.  And while you are at it, make any other necessary adjustments like providing your “Local” i.e., Spofford address.  

Sincerely, 

The Spofford Lake Association
