Sad Farewell, Happy Hello

Posted Friday March 14, 2025

Dear Langdon Lake Association,

With a heavy heart, I have decided to take on full-time employment elsewhere due to changes in my family. I truly wanted to keep working with you all, but after a month of juggling both jobs, my husband expressed that he missed me too much. If only I didn’t like him so much!

I have thoroughly enjoyed learning about Langdon Lake and getting to know many of you personally. I extend my heartfelt thanks to all the Board Members from Langdon Lake, the Water Coop, and Tollgate Historical Society for your kindness, guidance, and patience. I have also cherished working with Jerry and will miss his valuable input.

I plan to fill in occasionally, so hopefully, I will get to say hi from time to time. In the meantime, I would like to introduce you to Kami Walborn, your new office manager. Kami has exceptional office management and bookkeeping skills. She is a quick learner, and I know you will appreciate her.

Kami is a Pendleton native and a lifelong resident. She enjoys camping, paddleboarding, reading, and loves campfires with s’mores. Kami spends a lot of time hiking with her daughter, Malory, and their puppy, Winne. She is genuinely excited about working with all of you on future Langdon Lake endeavors.

Sincerely,

Lynsey Ring

WINTER IS HERE

Posted Friday November 15, 2024

As winter approaches, it’s crucial to ensure your homesite is adequately prepared to handle the cold weather.  We would like to encourage Leaseholders to check for a recent email sent out with attached documents that cover important information on snowmobile safety and the winterization of your cabin.

Winter weather can change rapidly, and it’s essential to take the necessary steps to winterize your homesite promptly. Failure to do so could result in costly damages, such as broken pipes, water damage to your property, and potential loss of water supply to other homesites.

We appreciate your attention to this matter and your diligence in ensuring the safety and maintenance of the community.

Lowering Lake Level in October 2024

Posted Friday August 30, 2024

The lake water level will be lowered by approximately four (4) feet as of October 17, 2024, and roughly maintained at that level until October 31, 2024, for purposes of providing leaseholders with an opportunity to perform dock and/or shoreline wall/bank maintenance work during that timeframe.  Any such work may require advance Architectural Review Committee review and approval, and any such work cannot include any digging or other disturbance of the lakebed area beyond shallow digging for placement of dock footings.  The lake level has not been lowered for this purpose for several years, and it may be another several years before the lake level is lowered again.

BEAR ACTIVITY

LOWERING LAKE LEVEL POSTPONED

Posted Monday July 10, 2023

At this year’s annual meeting members were informed that Langdon Lake Association is in the process of applying for a permit to lower the lake levels in October. The objective was to allow Leaseholders with lake access opportunity to clean up their shores, make repairs to their docks, and other lake side maintenance. Due to the lengthy application process, and the limited amount time it would allow Leaseholders to submit requests to the Architectural Review Committee, the Board has decided to postpone lowering the lake to next year.

Lake Treatment

Posted Wednesday July 5, 2023

The caretaker will be starting the treatment for the lake starting July 10, 2023. The treatment is non-toxic but may stain your skin blue. It is advised that you stay out of the water for 24 to 48 hours after treatment.
