This is an early reminder that on Wednesday, October 15th, the KLC will begin the annual lake drawdown in accordance with our DEC permit. The purpose of the drawdown is to protect shoreline areas and docks from winter ice damage. We recommend that any shoreline maintenance projects be planned for this fall, as the water level can rise quickly in the spring depending on rain, ice, and snowmelt. Please plan accordingly.

Kayak Rally: 
Start anywhere on the lake at 8:30am using any non-motorized watercraft and race to collect tickets from various flagged locations around the lake. Bring your tickets to 9 Old West Shore Dr in Valatie at 12:00 noon to be entered into a drawing for KLC merchandise. Don’t forget a pen to write your name and phone on the tickets and a baggie to keep them dry.
We are still looking for shoreline volunteers to fly a flag and distribute tickets to rally participants. If you are willing to help, please call Pete at (914) 217-6770.

Decorate your boats and meet at One Tree Island at 1:30pm. Prizes will be awarded to Most Patriotic, Most Unique, and Funniest boats. Please note that although the boat parade is open to the entire community, only current KLC members are eligible for prizes.

Light your flares along the shoreline at 9:00pm and enjoy the evening. Flares will be available July 4th at 9 Old West Shore Dr in Valatie between 9:00am – noon.
