Old Glory


A new flag is proudly displayed at the Narrows Fire Station on Main Street that once flew over the US Capitol. Barbara Frangione, the Vice-Regent of the Else Cilley Chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution presented the flag to the Northwood Fire-Rescue in a flag raising ceremony held last week. The flag was obtained through Senator Judd Gregg’s office, through the efforts of Northwood resident and DAR member Jean Lane. Mrs. Lane is chair of the DAR flag committee and has served in this position for many years. Members of the Northwood Fire-Rescue were present for the official raising of the flag along with local citizens.



 

Northwood Lake Watershed Hosts Weed Control Class


The Northwood Lake Watershed Association hosted a Department of Environmental Services “Weed Control” class on August 6 and 7, under the the direction of Brad Hall, Volunteer Dive Team Coordinator. The purpose of the class was to certify Divers and instruct Surface Tenders to harvest milfoil from New Hampshire lakes.


The class consisted of a 4 hour academics class on Friday night and open dive training and certification on Saturday. There were 17 divers and tenders attending the class and the open water training. The program was a huge success. It was gratifying to see such a proactive event taking place and milfoil actually being harvested by our own team. The NLWA now has two divers that are fully certified and four more that only need to complete the open water instruction later in August. The NLWA also had 6 Surface Tenders trained to assist in managing the dives. The class instruction was provided by Jody Connor, DES Limnology Director and Master Diver, Ted Aldrige. The instruction quality was outstanding.


The objective of the NLWA is to build on this great start to our Weed Control program. Diving is another tool to help us combat milfoil infestation. Along with our Lake Hosting, Weed Watchers and Water Quality Testing programs, we are developing a strong foundation to help maintain the quality of beautiful Northwood Lake for the  great deal of volunteer support and we need more help to assist in any of the programs mentioned above. Contact us at www.  northwoodlake.com to find out how we can put your talents to work to help protect our lake.
