June 25th
Greetings folks!
Summer has officially arrived, and with the beginning of summer activities it is an opportune to notify members of this year’s NLA events, and also to remind everyone of our water safety guidelines, which has helped us to enjoy what we have had here on this beautiful lake for so many years.
The following is an excerpt from our NLA website and can be found at Norwaylake.ca under “Good Neighbour Reminders”…
“WATER SAFETY – Observe speed limits and be aware of swimmers as well as snorkelers and divers. – Maximum speed is 10 km/hr within 30 meters of any shoreline (even the islands). – Be aware of the New Boating Regulations including the necessity for a license to operate a watercraft. – Stay clear of boats that appear to be fishing and remember that their lines may extend far behind the vessel. – Remember that alcohol consumption while operating a watercraft comes under the same law as any other motor vehicle and is just as dangerous. (Norway Lake is visited on a regular basis by both the Ontario Provincial Police and the Ministry of Natural Resources) – Try to stay vigilant for the many loons that we are lucky enough to share the lake with. This is of special importance when they have their young with them.
NO WAKE IN RIVERS OR NEAR DOCKS – Right of way goes to sailboats/boards. – Common courtesy is to be extended to canoeists, kayakers & paddle-boaters. – Some watercraft are specially designed to create large wakes (even at slow speeds). Please be conscious of the damage that can be done to shorelines and docks by what may seem like “fun” to you.”
