Leaf Pick-up 2009

Each fall the Eagle Lake Improvement Association picks up bagged leaves from around Eagle Lake and take them to the

landfills. We'd like to thank Nathan Reed, Beth Tepfer, Phil Wesby & for helping this year. We picked up leaves from

25 homes and pick up 318 bags of leaves. That's a lot of leaves that won't enter our lake and produce phosphorus.

Board members who helped were Bill Dale, Tammy & Dave Knapper, Glen Simons, Marly Tebben & Dan Tepfer.

A special thanks to Tammy Knapper for taking the pictures and preparing a great breakfast for us after the pick up.

This service is free to both members and non-members of the association.

It is the goal of the association to keep as many leaves out of Eagle Lake as possible.

As we met at the boat launch, an eagle was trying to catch a coot!
