Good to see a real winter on the lake again! ❄️

09/12/2025

At last night’s CLC meeting a recommendation was made to set the winter lake Level at -20 to -24” for the winter months. The drawdown will begin after Oct 14, at approximately -3” per week.

Currently, the lake is at -8” and last winter it was down to -40”.

💥💥 Let's LIGHT UP THE LAKE 💥💥

The Friends of the Lake are inviting boat owners to decorate your boats in lights and gather on August 9th at 8:30pm in the waters in front of CVS/Lake Pocotopaug Sign.

Then slowly cruise around the lake passing by Sears Park 1st continue cruising around the lake passing by the many lake/ beach associations and bays. 🧭

As we have stated in the past this is NOT AN ORGANIZED BOAT PARADE you do not need to fill out an entry form , just feel free to join in the fun !

We ask boats to cruise at no wake speed . Participate your own risk. We cannot guarantee that boats will go around the whole lake or pass by at any particular time.

Sears Park will be open past dusk for people to park and watch the boat's going by.

Property owners, businesses and lake associations are encouraged to put lights up too !

Let's LIGHT UP THE LAKE on August 9th starting at 8:30pm in the area in front of CVS/ Lake Pocotopaug sign !
