Lily Pad Update

01/05/2022 10:41 AM | Anonymous

The Lake Gerry Lily Pad cleanup efforts continued this year.  While the lily pad treatment was later than we anticipated, we are seeing good results around the lake this winter. 

Many large sections of lily pad roots/rhizomes are starting to float to the surface.  The lily-pad removal in conjunction with the monthly muck treatments are going to improve the overall health of Lake Gerry.  We will see an improvement in water quality, aquatic life and recreational capabilities as these treatments continue.
