LPA Summer Event Descriptions

Lake Walk Program

WALK WITH US! Gain a new perspective of the lake and enjoy seeing different neighborhoods. We are happy to promote healthy living through fitness and fun by organizing four walks this summer. * Join us on Friday mornings at 9:00 AM for a one hour walk on different segments of Lake Drive. Each walk is approximately 2.5 miles long. If you prefer to go farther, go for it! Click for Lake Walk Maps Click for Lake Walk Flyer * Lake Walk #1 – West Lake Drive Loop (Grapes Point),
Park roadside 193rd St./456th Ave.
* Lake Walk #2 – East Lake Drive to Northeast Lake Drive,
Park at Prestrude’s Access * Lake Walk #3 – Sunset Park Drive to Southeast Lake Drive,
Park at Prestrude’s Access * Lake Walk #4 – West Lake Drive to Prairie Quay Drive,
Park at Sorenson’s Access



Spring Beach Clean-Up

We love clean shorelines and hope you do too! Trash left on the beach is not just unattractive, it can wash back into the water and create safety hazards for boaters, swimmers, and aquatic life. * Come and volunteer to clean up shoreline trash. Meet at either Sorenson or Prestrude’s Beach Access where trash bags will be supplied. Pack your own gloves. Travel to either Prestrude, Saarinen, Stone Bridge, or Lake Poinsett Access (Hammer's Pasture) parking lots and begin your cleanup * Bring the kids! Foster the next generation of young lake caretakers by including your children on this fun hands-on experience. * The Lake Poinsett Association is a proud sponsor of SDGFP’s Adopt-A-Lake program.



Coffee Chats - Ask an Expert!

Everyone is invited to this casual coffee date to meet our guest expert. What a great opportunity to ask questions and discover what you learn from an expert could be invaluable advice! * This year's 2021 special guest is Mark Ermer, SDGFP Area Fisheries Supervisor for NE South Dakota. Click for News Flyer * Let’s visit with your favorite drink and share. Bring friends and conversation.



Happy Hour with LPA

If coffee isn’t your drink then visit us for Happy Hour, location to be announced. We're happy to meet you, happy to take the time. Bring friends and conversation.



Annual Meeting

The annual meeting provides an opportunity for members and friends of the LPA to hear what the LPA has been doing the past year. The agenda covers “Healthy Lake” Progress, a Financial Report, Director Elections, and other issues of interest to the membership.



Our Famous Pancake Breakfast
