Good afternoon,
I hope everyone had an enjoyable 4th of July weekend and it was great to see so many property owners, families and guests enjoying such a beautiful weekend. I’m glad to report that we had huge crowds at all of our amenities last weekend with no reports of injuries or serious incidents. With that said, here’s a few announcements for this weekend.
Kids Fishing Clinic – The Lake Summerset Fish Club will be hosting their annual Kids Fishing Clinic tomorrow morning at Mitchell Park near the lodge from 10am-12noon. All kids are welcome and will receive instruction and a chance to do a little fishing. This is a great opportunity for kids to learn how to fish. Thank you to the members of the Fish Club for hosting such wonderful event!
Fireworks – While the 4th of July is in the rearview mirror, I’d like to remind all Lake Summerset Members that fireworks are illegal in both Stephenson and Winnebago Counties. They are also prohibited in our Community per the Redbook and the Bluebook with fines ranging from $100 to $350. We will have additional Public Safety Officers patrolling and looking for anyone using fireworks. Six (6) property owners received citations for using fireworks last Saturday night. Please do not set off fireworks within the Lake Summerset Community and remember we have a spectacular fireworks display planned for the evening of July 18th. As we have in the past, the fireworks display will be set off from the dam at dusk.
Volunteers – With all the negativity and criticism on the Nextdoor Platform, I just wanted to remind everyone how fortunate the Association is to have so many volunteers willing to give their time and expertise for the benefit of our community. We’re lucky to have so many willing volunteers to serve on our committees, clubs and the LSA & OCLUD Boards. While it pains me see our volunteers publicly criticized by people who choose not to get involved, please know that you’re appreciated and we’d be lost without you. Thank You.
Hoping all have an enjoyable and safe weekend!
Mike
