Bacteria, whether it be the cyanobacteria connected to plant life or bacteria from animals, is always present in the every lake. That is natural. But please be aware of the Association’s emergency notification system if something dangerous is identified. The Association has MANY communication channels but they are all ineffective if not monitored regularly.
- E-mail notifications – update or add an address from the bottom of any past message. Share the link with neighbors or family members who can help you monitor lake news.
- Website – www.DunlapLake.org
- Posting Place – A large signboard is under construction at 840 East Lake
A beta-test of a new Dunlap Lake town-card, which works like an app to make news updates available on your phone. This digital card is available by texting LAKE to 63975.
The Dunlap Lake Association Facebook page – be sure to follow the official Association page with the logo at www.facebook.com/DunlapLake/
Other contact options – Three people have signed up to be part of a phone tree. If anyone is interested in coordinating a phone outreach contact Carolyn Green at 791-1398.
There is also the dlake.info discussion board. The discussion there has been instrumental in the current efforts to find buyers for the dirt from E8. Jim Lynch posted a new dredging proposal June 28 titled Lake Plan 2.21.
There are 10 street entrances and 350 homes at Dunlap Lake. Yard signs and direct mail are fine for events but monitoring e-mail, the website and the signboard are especially important during the summer months.
