Swimmers Itch - YUCK!
As evidenced at our 2018 Welcome Back to Paradise meeting we asked you who has been impacted by swimmers itch, and we saw many hands go up perhaps up to 20%. Our board members have been going to conferences on this topic for many, many years to stay informed.
We have observed other lake associations who's lakes were greatly impacted, they got involved and conduct studies leading to recommendations for improving the swimmers itch situation on the lake.
The LLA board has put to a vote the conducting of a comprehensive assessment on Long, Mickey, and Ruth Lakes this 2018 year. The cost of this study is $13,000. We have recently acquired a $3,000 grant to help offset the expense. The Long Lake Foundation has set up a Swimmers Itch fund so donations are tax deductible under section 501 (c) (3) of the IRS code.
