SPRING NEWSLETTER & HISTORY OF THE LAKE POSTED
Hi all,
Welcome to spring. A good way to start off the season is to read up on some interesting info from the Province Lake Association and other local establishments. The most recent spring issue of the Newsletter is now available for your enjoyment. We also posted the article written by Natalie Prentice in 1995 entitled “Province Lake – A History”. You can read both of them under newsletters above or at this link.
CYANOBACTERIA ARTICLES
One of our board members came across a series of cyanobacteria articles on the Cape & Islands website. There is quite a bit of information out there, but if you are interested in cyanobacteria details, this is a good source. You can see the articles at this link ….
