2024-06-11 17:00 - 19:00 | Scandia Community Center, 14727 209th St. N., Scandia, MN, 55073, United States
Join your friends and neighbors to celebrate Bone Lake’s great water quality achievement!
After 20 years on the state’s impaired waters list for excessive nutrients, Bone Lake has been officially delisted in 2024. This landmark accomplishment would not have been possible without the efforts and activities from the Comfort Lake – Forest Lake Watershed District, Bone Lake Association, City of Scandia, and the many local groups and organizations. We will be having a short program to commemorate the activities and partnerships that have helped the lake reach this milestone.
There will be a pizza supper, refreshments, and cake following the program. Please RSVP via email or by phone to (651) 395-5850 by June 1st.
