DATE GROUP SITE June 5 LCF&G Campagna Academy June 12 LCF&G 2000 E. Main St. Griffith June 19 WCLP The Oxbow TO OUR NEWEST MEMBERS There is always some concern on the part of some of our board members as to whether, or not, new members will bother to read, and heed, the rules of our property. Of course those people probably wouldn’t bother to read this, but here is a synopsis of our rules. All fish are catch and release only. No night fishing. No minnows. No gas motors on the back lake...boats are limited to 16’ and powered by oars or electric trolling motor. No cutting of live, or dead, trees, bushes or brush. Under 16 must be accompanied by an adult member. Don’t loan your keycard and lock gates and doors behind you. Your keycard costs $25 to initiate. Renew your membership before December 31, of the current year, and your keycard doesn’t cost another dime. Renew your membership late and your keycard costs $25 to renew. Any questions? |
