The meeting and
election scheduled for Tuesday, October 27, 2009, as referenced below, had to be postponed due to a family

Board meeting at the Barn Thursday, September 17 at 6pm. We need to plan for
an election of four Board members whose terms expire in October.
Our annual public meeting is set for Tuesday,
July 21, from 7-8 at the Mishnock Barn. We'll put an ad in The Reminder and distribute flyers around the lake. Also, we'll
send letters to the membership. At the meeting we will review the Association's activities of the past year and invite
questions and comments from the public.
On Monday, June 15, Aquatic Control Technology will chemically
treat Lake Mishnock in order to control the growth of non-native aquatic vegetation. There will be no boating or
fishing for one day, or until June 16; there will be no swimming for two days or until June 17. Do not use the water for drinking,
irrigation or for mixing sprays for agriculture or ornamental plants until further notice. If you have questions

Next Board meeting June 16, 7pm at the Barn. We need ideas
for our annual public meeting scheduled for July 21, 6 -8 pm.
At the Board meeting of June 2 we decided to
follow the recommendations of ACT and use 2, 4-D for lake treatment this year. This product has the approval of the Rhode
Island DEM and is widely used throughout New England. It attacks the plant from the roots instead of the leaves. New Hampshire
has gone exclusively to 2-4D and is no longer using Reward, the product we used in the past. We hope treatment can take place
within the next two weeks.
Directors' meeting Tuesday, June 2, 2009, 7pm at the barn. At the meeting
of May 26 we decided we need more information about Navigate, the herbicide ACT wants to use for treating this year. We expect to
make a decision at this meeting.
