Pencil in the date!
Water testing will take place on Saturday, August 13. Testing kits and instructions can be collected and returned between 10 a.m. and noon from/to the Palmer-Rousseau residence.
The AGM will also be held on Saturday, August 13, exact time TBD, but probably at about 2 p.m., chez Ken and Jen -- 29 ch. Hugessen.
Further details on both events will be provided closer to the date. This is just an early warning of upcoming important stuff, so you can clear your desk and join the fun.

Eco Preservation Through Boat Washing
For years, there has been a smallish sign at the gates on Anne Est and Mr. Joe Roads exhorting us to various commendable behaviours that will help preserve our native environment by preventing the introduction of non-native, invasive species. Probably you, like I, have ceased to see it. I recommend a review next time your unlocking your way in or out.
Below is a link to a brief article (thank you, Stephanie) explaining the importance of boat inspection and washing in controlling invasive species. This, of course, applies only if you are bringing a boat in "from away", as they say in Newfoundland, or if you have anyone bringing a boat for a visit.

In other news: the mosquitoes, after a ferocious start, seem to have settled down to a dull whine, principally mornings and evenings. But, never fear! The deer flies are here! Fortunately, so are the dragonflies and I, for one, wish them happy hunting.
