Once again Jo Hermann has graciously opened her beautiful home on Christmas Lake for our Lake Fellowship annual summer extravaganza!
As in past years, there will be plenty of activities: volleyball (land or lake), bocce ball, ping pong, water-skiing, board games, visiting, resting, paddle-boarding, eating, etc...
Plan to arrive anytime after 11am; we'll start the buffet at about noon. Please bring a dish to share and your own beverages (coffee and orange juice will be provided).
NEW LOCATION: In past years we’ve canoed out of Wild River State Park. They do not have canoe rentals this year. Instead, we’ll be renting from Eric’s Canoe Rentals, who we’ve used at Wild River, at their St. Croix Falls location. We park there, they shuttle us to the landing in WI Interstate Park and we paddle to Osceola, where they pick us up and shuttle us back to St. Croix Falls. You won’t have to pay park entrance fees.
For eight years after Lake Fellowship was founded in 1960 we had no home and members met in various locations. Then 50 years ago, the A-frame that had been a Minnegasco display house at the Minnesota State Fair was moved to its current location to become the permanent home of Lake Fellowship.
Come join members, former members, and friends for a weekend of activities honoring our unique A-frame home, its beautiful natural setting, and the visionary members who provided these gifts.
Our kick-off Homecoming event includes unveiling of our new sign, picnic, self-guided tours of our building and grounds, and bonfire. Dress: Casual
5pm – Mingling and drinks
6pm – Unveiling of sign, eating, music and bonfire

This is a family-friendly costume party. Food, games, fun, music (and a cash bar for the adults). Friends and family welcome!

SATURDAY, AUGUST 30th from 8am - 2pm is FALL CLEANUP DAY AT THE FELLOWSHIP. Your help is needed this year as we have a LOT of indoor and outdoor things to take care of. Here is a partial list of things we need to accomplish:
OUTDOOR WORK:
1. Planting of hostas/plants to replace the existing bush next to the staircase
2. Trees trimmed back where necessary
3. Drain tile between handicapped access stairway to be cleaned/inspected
4. Well head by path to be painted, concrete posts to be added if possible
