Did you notice the new road signs?Charlie Gardner (Fire Department) explained that the new signs were just about finished going up. They are larger than the old ones and certainly easier to see both day and night. When questioned, Charlie, said that using these signs enables the 1st responders to find you without a fire number. Charlie also stated that it is IMPORTANT TO MAINTAIN YOUR ROAD! RESCUE VEHICLES NEED A MINIMUM OF 12' TO GET THE TRUCKS IN. Cut back branches where needed.

Why join the LMPO?
Here is what your dues provide
1. BUOYS -We have about 30 buoys throughout the lake. (replacing 8 this year.) Take them out each fall, clean, repair, replace as needed and again put them out each summer. (Also the insurance and upkeep of the LMPO pontoon boat used.)
2. DAM - We pay taxes, maintenance and inspection (inspection was $1400 in 2022) for the dam property. 3. MAPS - We purchase lake maps for the membership every 5 years, and we distribute complimentary copies of the lake directory to dues paying members. 4. LAKE QUALITY - We also test multiple sites around the lake for coliform bacteria, and we pay for of the dam. We have funds earmarked for fish cribs, but progress has been limited by the DNR’s restrictive permitting. 5. SPECIAL PROJECTS - We also support special projects that benefit the community. We purchased the dock for the Michigamme Township Park and in 2022 we donated $1400 toward a modern sound system for the Township Hall’s gymnasium. We regularly donate to the July 4th Committee and the museum’s annual fundraisers. 6. MICHIGAMME MESSENGER - This is the yearly newsletter that was given out at the annual meeting. We unfortunately have had difficulty resurrecting the Michigamme Messenger. Any Volunteers? 7. ANNUAL MEETING- Last, but certainly important. The donuts, hot dogs and chicken for the meeting. Canning? Freezing?
