Our second speaker was Lara Bold, an
Americorps Volunteer, who had generated a loosestrife map indicating
where stands occur around the lake. Copies were distributed to members
in the hopes that it would help in eradicating the invasive plant,
Purple Loosestrife, She instructed members on methods of removal.
(It’s hoped that a lot was removed this summer, but efforts will be
ongoing until it is eliminated. TLIA tee’s or sweatshirts were
presented to the speakers as thank-you’s.
Winners of the annual raffle, headed by Peg and Dick Harris, were
