Our Activities and Projects
Lake Water Testing and Monitoring
Water samples are gathered by lake association members and transported to RMB labs for testing. These test results are also sent to and used by Minnesota state agencies.
Shallow Water Hazard Buoys
Shallow underwater points are marked with hazard buoys to alert boaters of their location.
Loon Nesting Platforms
Nesting platforms are constructed and placed on the lake each spring in order to provide additional nesting locations for the loons that call Clitherall Lake their summer home.
Volunteers count the number of nesting pairs and successful young each summer.
Aquatic Invasive Species
The lake association purchased an Internet Landing Installed Device Sensor (I-LIDS) system which is installed at the public access during the open water season. This system performs video monitoring of the launching and loading of boats looking for possible AIS violations.
The lake association also donates to the Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research Council (MAISRC) at the University of Minnesota. Board members have also participated in the "Starry Trek" event put on by MAISRC.
