DNR urges extra precautions for Prior Lake (April 10, 2009)

http://news.dnr.state.mn.us/index.php/2009/04/10/dnr-urges-extra-precautions-for-prior-lake/

A recent discovery of zebra mussel shells in Prior Lake means boaters and anglers should take extra precautions when using the popular southwestern metro lake, according to officials from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Although officials aren’t certain whether the shells originally came from live zebra mussels in the lake or were brought to the area on equipment and fell off, they said it’s likely the lake is infested.

Volunteers Needed!!!

The Prior Lake Association is always looking for volunteers to help.  We continue to expand the events we have each year and we need additional volunteers.  If you are interested in getting involved, call Donna at 952/440-5503

Navigational Buoys

For many years the Prior Lake Association has purchased buoys for Prior Lake.  These buoys are purchased thanks to the membership dues that are paid to the Association.    Last year, for the first time in the lake’s history, lighted channel buoys were marking the channels on the lake.  These solar powered lights were a big hit with the night boaters on the lake.  Again this year, the Association will be purchasing additional marker buoys for the lake at a cost of $150 each.  To keep these valuable buoys protecting lake users, boaters are asked to be respectful of the navigational aids and not tie up or anchor to the buoys.  If you observe others doing so, please notify the sheriff.
