The 2021 season is upon us\u2026\u2026As cottage owners we are fortunate to have a beautiful place like Moose Lake to enjoy in these stressful times. Please read the information below to see what\u2019s going on within the park and help you get the best out of your cottaging this year.
 
For updated information on COVID 19 restrictions in provincial parks please go to COVID 19: Information for Park Visitors<\/a>
 
Due to the ongoing pandemic, we will unfortunately not<\/strong> be able to host a Family Fun Day<\/strong>.  We may be<\/strong> able to host Moose Music<\/strong> with appropriate COVID safety measures in on Sunday August 1st<\/sup>  \u2013 confirmation and information to follow based on Covid related conditions and restrictions at that time.
 
Grading<\/strong> of the park roads is currently underway, once complete, speed bumps<\/strong> will be replaced on the east and west cottage roads at the same locations as last year.  Dust suppression<\/strong> is scheduled to be applied by the end of May (weather permitting \u2013 we need a little rain!)
 
The water plant<\/strong> is up and running with testing to be complete this week (May 10-14).  We encourage Cottagers to source water from within the park as often as possible!
 
Please note that the Transfer Station will no longer be accepting mattresses.
 
Fire safety<\/strong>– please ensure you are noting the fire conditions in our area.  Fire bans will be posted at the Park access point (park campground office) or further information can be found here: Manitoba Fire Restrictions<\/a> . For information on the Woodlands\/Sandilands fire from the RM of Piney click here: Piney Fire Updates<\/a>
 
With a dry spring, water levels are low.  The control dam<\/strong> will be adjusted to maintain optimum lake levels as directed by water stewardship.
 
Pesticide use is governed by directives from the Province of Manitoba. Note that the use of non-essential herbicides is restricted in Manitoba.

The MLCOA has provided two fire extinguishers for public\/cottager use in case of emergencies. They are located on posts at Block 4, Lot 4 (East side) and Block 14, Lot 15 (West side). If you need to use them, please notify the MLCOA by email (mooselakecoa@gmail.com<\/a>) so that they can be re-charged. These fire extinguishers were replaced this spring and the MLCOA would like to thank Prairie Battery for providing annual servicing free of charge to our association.
 
Association fees<\/strong> are set at $40 as per our 2018 AGM.  We would like to encourage contactless payment of our annual fees in light of the continuing concerns with COVID.  Fees can be paid via this link MLCOA Fees<\/a> to our website.  We use a \u2018PayPal\u2019 portal as a secure payment method.  YOU DO NOT NEED A PAYPAL ACCOUNT.  Once you click the link \u201cI would like to pay my MLCOA fees\u201d<\/em>, enter your lot and block number and follow the links as a guest to pay with a credit card.  
 
We have several new cottage owners this year. Please encourage them to contact us to become members of the MLCOA. We can be reached by email\u2026 mooselakecoa@gmail.com<\/a>
