Raffle tickets status: Nearly all the tickets have been sold via resorts on the lake. Only a few may be available for sale at the picnic.
The Fall Newsletter inclusions were discussed. We may be able to get extra extended growth walleyes. That is important since the WI DNR will not be stocking Nelson L. this year.
