Your Lake Association needs your help! As we plan our activities for 2025, we could really use more volunteers to take on discrete jobs to support social, safety, research and education efforts. Please see below for a list of opportunities. We know everyone is busier than busy, but if you can spare an hour or two a month, or even just an afternoon sometime next summer, please get in touch with Catherine at koshlonglake@gmail.com. Thank you for helping to make Koshlong a great community!
