Kawartha Lakes Stewards Association Survey

The Kawartha Lakes Stewards Association (KLSA) is seeking your participation in this survey on Eurasian watermilfoil. Eurasian watermilfoil is an exotic, invasive, aquatic plant species found in the Kawartha Lakes. We are concerned with your opinions on the potential use of a biological control method to reduce the presence and density of this plant. Your opinions will help KLSA align our goals and projects with the public’s needs and desires. Your experience living with this plant makes your participation in this survey extremely valuable. The results will be used for several purposes, including:

1. To better understand public concerns and aquatic plant issues
2. To assess public support for a biological control program to control Eurasian Watermilfoil
3. To direct future informative materials on exotic, invasive plants

The survey can be accessed at: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2M32KNQ . It takes about 5 minutes to complete. Please complete the survey by Wednesday, March 9, 2011. Please feel free to forward this email to other Kawartha Lake residents.

Thank you in advance for your participation.

Sturgeon Lake Sailing Club Awarded Regatta of the YEAR!

On January 28, 2011, the Canadian Yachting Association announced that Sturgeon Lake Sailing Club was the winner of the 2010 CYA Regatta of the Year. The CYA City of Kingston Regatta of the Year Award will be presented by CYA to SLSC for its hosting of the 2010 Canadian Laser Masters Championships that took place over 3 days of great sailing in July 2010.

The Masters Regatta involved a huge effort from an army of Sturgeon volunteers – it was in every way a community wide effort.  Many people provided beds to the sailors; many prepared the community breakfasts and dinners; many were on the water helping out; the harbour team got boats launched and back to shore; the scorers were timely; the prizes were wonderful…The masters sailors – aged 35 to 77- raved about the accommodations, about the meals, about the racing, about the surroundings and above all about how organized and helpful and friendly the volunteers were.  The Sailing Club extends a giant thank you to everyone who pitched in to make this regatta what it was – the best in Canada for 2010!
