Fall 2024 Update


The Lake Irene Preservation Association (LIPA) board of directors met on October 22, 2024. The following are highlights of the topics the board discussed.


  • 480 pounds or approximately 12,000 walleye fingerlings were stocked in Lake Irene by LIPA this fall. Thanks for all the donations to make this possible.
  • Year three of the five-year lake vegetation management plan was completed in 2024. Post treatment surveying for the invasive curly-leaf pondweed showed a significant drop in its occurrence. Thanks again for all the donations that went into this program.
  • New board members Terri Myhre and Karen Cook attended their first regular board meeting in October
  • There are currently 109 active LIPA members for 2024. This is a new record high number.
