Editor: Janice Van DykeThe Bay Laker

Bob & Lorna Malavolti outdid themselves last month with a wonderful dinner of meatloaf, scalloped potatoes, green beans, salad, and several great desserts. Thanks to Ed & Adrienne Anderson and their committee for planning these dinners.

FROM THE MANAGERLeslee Jones

All of our major projects for this year have now been completed. We have new water shut-off valves, lake bank rock has been installed and road work has been done. We have also added a new electric line to the clubhouse which should help with overloaded circuits.

As a reminder we are now on the “winter” mowing schedule. Bay Lake will now be mowed twice a month.

After trying to have Comcast give us an up to date channel listing to no avail – I’ve decided to do one in-house. If you would like an up to date TV listing please stop by the office.
