The valve will be opened on Tuesday, November 1st to begin the lake lowering process.(Weather pending) The Winter pool level will be approximately 4 feet lower than the normal summer pool level.

The lake is lowered for several reasons. The main reasons include the protection of shorelines from ice, to allow for easier access to make repairs to shorelines and docks, and to relieve pressure on the dam.

Of course, the weather is the main driver in when, and if, the water reaches winter pool. It generally takes 2-3 weeks for the lake to lower to winter pool. If we experience periods of rain then it will take longer.

We can not control how fast the water lowers. The valve will be completely open through the winter months.

Please contact Mike Casimir with any questions on the lake lowering process. (740-837-0833)

A second phase of the walking trail will open on 9/22/22. The “Soccer Field” trail is ready to be used.

To reiterate, the trails are to provide a safe area for residents to walk/run, ride bikes, rollerblade, or other similar activities. The paths are not intended for golf cart traffic. The soccer field trail has some hills and curves. Golf carts will be a safety issue for those that are walking on the path.

The CLPOA maintenance crew continues to restore the grounds around the path. Please stay off newly seeded areas. With the recent rains, the dirt along the trails will be muddy.

The contractor has started the final leg of the trail. Once this area is done, all trails will be connected. The schedule continues to get delayed due to rain every week.

Thank you for your patience as we work through this project.
