Beautiful Day in Portage Lakes

Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Edge Realty

Wow!!!  I feel like I'm on vacation and here I am at home in Portage Lakes.  The boats are starting to come out.  The outside decks at the Harbor Landing and Hook, Line and Drinkers are overflowing w/ patrons.  Something about eating on the deck by the lake......  Today I took the kids to Biggins Big Dip for ice cream and watched the boats on the speed lane across the street.  People are out walking, biking and just enjoying the 80 degree weather.  If I didn't live here in Portage Lakes, I would be here anyway.  I have buyers who are waiting for their deal to close and they are just so excited to be on the water.  I would be too if I were them.  Looking forward to Memorial Day Weekend here in the wonderful Portage Lakes.

Portage Lakes Beach Bash Cleanup

Beach Bash Cleanup
Brownie Troop 90790 from SCOPE Primary School held a "Beach Bash Cleanup" on July 13 after the Portage Lakes Dragon Boat Festival at the Portage Lakes State Park.  They started planning it while school was still in session and the date ended up co-ordinating with the Festival.  While the participants were receiving their awards, the girls, with a little help from a couple brothers, picked up the beach.  We are happy to say there was VERY little litter left behind by the racers.   Special thanks to Troop Leader Shawna DeCola for Planning and use of her boat and Ava Branz for coming up with the idea. The kids also spent a couple hours swimming in the Portage Lakes and riding on the pontoon boat on Turkeyfoot Lake.  After they got back to land, they didn't want to break up their little party and spent a couple hours playing at our hostess's house and took a few dips in the hot tub. A great memory was made that day and the kids also learned about community giving and volunteering.
