Island Lake T shirts and other Logo wear

For a few years I had T Shirts made and these were very popular. But many folks wanted different colors, sizes, and items. So at the request of the board I created a cafe press website. Cafe Press allows you to purchase Island lake shirts/hoodies/pants in almost any color you want and in the size you want. They ship the items, and we get a small profit $1 . The quality is very good.

Dear Island Lake Property Owners,

The Island Lake Property Owners Association will hold their fall meeting on Saturday, August 31, at 11:00 A.M. at the Trinity United Methodist Church in Rose City.  The directors will meet at 9:30 A.M.

It’s been a great summer, and we’re looking forward to fall and all the exciting things we do as the leaves begin to turn.

I understand the boat parade was a great success with the addition of the light parade that evening thanks to Clare Hulett and Eric Rapp.

The annual art sale is scheduled for Labor Day weekend at the corner of Oak and Dyer Roads.  I’m impressed with all the talented people we have on and around the lake.

Sunday, September 1, the Island Lake Boat Races will be held once again.  The races begin at 3:00 P.M.  Hot dogs will be provided.  There will be prizes for the winners.  The races will be on the north end of the island.  Come and join the fun.

We have several new home owners living on the lake this summer, and the meeting will be a good time to meet them.  If you have already met some of them, please invite them to this meeting.

2014 dues are due on or before October 1, 2013.  They still are $20.00 per year.

I look forward to seeing all of you at the meeting on Saturday, August 31.

Sincerely,

Larry Sills

Summer 2013 is coming
