Lakes Committee Seeks Input

The newly formed Newbold Lakes Committee is undertaking a process to determine a basic statement of purpose.  In addition to our charter, established by the Newbold Town Board, the Lakes Committee seeks to establish a statement of purpose--who we are, what we do, and what we stand for.

This statement is one that the committee believes should receive the opportunity for widespread input, not only from its lakes associations, but also from any interested observer, including readers of this page.

Our preliminary work includes language that protects, preserves and enhances all lakes in the Town of Newbold. The committee discussed activities that include communication, education, and support to increase not only the number of lake associations in our town, but assisting to make existing lake associations even better.

If you have ideas toward those ends, please to contact the committee at seshelman@newboldtown.com before our January 16 meeting.  All are invited to participate. All ideas are welcome.
