The tug-o'-war is always a popular event.

A NOTE OF THANKS from the Association to the Stewart Family at Birch Crest Resort for making their facilities available to us for our Annual General Meeting and especially for the Regatta.
With the acquisition of the former "Millars Performance" marina in Burks Falls, (now Stewarts Recreation) their year round service offering is very comprehensive.
We are indeed fortunate to have such stable ownership of the only commercial enterprise on the lake, and direct our members to their websites for details of their services:
Resort (for Birch Crest Resort and Birch Crest Builders)
Marina (for the Marina in Burks Falls)
