2020 LSLA Annual Meeting With a pandemic hanging over all of us, the Board decided to move the in-person meeting to online. The meeting started at 9am on July 11 th with a welcome from the Association’s President, Pam Wilkinson. The number for attendees peaked at around 110, not including the Board. The membership voted through the video conference’s polling option and questions from members were submitted using the chat function. Presentations included a report on the state of the Hopkins Dam, water quality reporting, and an update on the loon population. The meeting ended with the drawing for the online Raffle prizes, another first for the board. The meeting lasted just over 2 hours. Overall it was considered a success with much positive feedback from those attending.
