Membership Update
If you are reading this, you most likely have paid your 2024-25 year dues — Thank you! In just a fewmonths,we’ll begin collecting the annual dues for the coming 2025-26 season.
Beginning this year, you will receive an email requesting your dues and payment through our online membership program. We hope this will streamline the board’s work by eliminating paper forms and checks, making it easier for you to be reminded and pay your dues. Look for that reminder in early March. Again, this will be for the collection of dues from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026. New Members will be able to join by visiting our website here.
Your dues entitle you to vote at our HFRLA annual member meeting in June and allow the board and committees to conduct water testing, invasive weed control and fisheries monitoring, attend educational events, and fund our administrative expenses.
In addition to monetary contributions, many HFRLA association members devote countless volunteer hours to attending meetings, talking with other lake associations, attending seminars, working on the website and newsletters, coordinating with the DNR and Town of Boulder Junction, and monitoring our lakes for animals, fowl, fish and invasive species.
For this year, 2024-25, we have 91 family memberships, one business membership and one friend membership. This is a little below the normal range of membership numbers. It has been said that we have over 300 owners on the lake. Please invite your neighbors (particularly the new and younger ones) to join us in improving communications and sharing information to maintain our beautiful lakes and surrounding areas.
