The Watch Lake-North Green Lake Volunteer Fire Department's (WLNGLVFD) Annual General Meeting is scheduled for Saturday, August 3, 2024, beginning at 10 a.m., at the Shorty Horn Memorial Fire Hall (Hall#1) on Pioneer Road. The agenda includes: executive reports, secretary’s report, treasurer's report, fire chief’s report, and elections of officers.
There will be an Open House, Bake Sale and BBQ lunch after the meeting. This year, we will be voting on motions to remove the early bird discount on the fire dues and the address sign sticker program. You need to be a paid member (by paying your annual fire protection dues) in order to attend and vote.
August Gymkhana
The Watch Lake-Green Lake Community Association (WLGLCA) Gymkhana will be held on Saturday, August 10, starting at noon. Everyone is welcome. The admission is $2.
This event will be held at the grounds just west of the Little Horse Lodge. These games are based on riding skills and horsemanship and are a lot of fun for both competitors and the spectators. There will be a concession selling mouth-watering hamburgers, hotdogs as well as pop, water, coffee, chocolate bars and chips. There will also be a refreshment garden to quench the adults’ thirst.
If you would like more information, contact Dimps Horn at 250-456-7741. We hope to see you all there.
