Activities
In addition to holding three general membership meetings each summer the Association supports the following activities:
Road Pick Up-Volunteers pick up trash alongside seven miles of local roads a minimum of three times a year. Each volunteer is assigned about one mile and conducts the pick up after each of the major summer holidays. For more information or to volunteer contact Rita or Richard Menke (218) 485-8071.
Brush and Leaf Disposal-With the cooperation of Windemere Township residents can dispose of brush and leaves at the township gravel pit. Only branches three inches in diameter or less are allowed. Volunteers from the association monitor the activity. The gravel pit is located near the Moose Lake Airport. Take highway 61 south from Moose Lake and turn right on the road to the airport.
