Annual Meeting: Sailing Camp

We are pleased that Bryan Horsley from the Massachusetts Septic Test Center (MASSTC) will be with us to discuss Urine Diversion and other solutions to the problem with nitrogen in the Pond.  If you have not heard Bryan speak, it is an amazing treat and worth every minute.  In addition, we will discuss what the LPA has been up to this past year and we will have answers to all your questions about what's happening on the Lagoon this summer: water conditions, fish and shellfish activity, and LPA events on the water for you and your families.  Town officials will be in attendance to address some of the most critical issues affecting Lagoon Pond.
