The Annual Duane Lake Association Picnic and Meeting at Van Patten Mill Park is this Saturday, the 13th starting at noon. The meeting will begin with a neighborhood picnic at the park pavilion. Hamburgers, hotdogs, all the 'fixins and beverages will be provided. Everyone is invited to bring a dish and if you have any questions including "What should I bring?", please reach-out by text message or call our bar-be-que master chef and party coordinator, Kim Roberts, at 518-522-6811.
Van Patten Mill Park is located on Depot Road, just a two-minute drive from Stewart's in the hamlet of Duanesburg. It's a fun gathering with bar-be-que favorites and lots of really tasty dishes to share along with our neighborhood camaraderie and celebration of all things summer! Please plan to join us!
At this meeting, the agenda will include a vote on the 2026 LAKE MANAGEMENT PLAN. Click this link to go to the Plan. Please take a few minutes to review the Plan and come prepared to ask any questions at the meeting.
Since the SURVEY results reflected an almost even split on if the DLA should take possession [of the dam] immediately or wait, there will also be an opportunity to ask more questions and make any other additional comments at the Annual Meeting. The vote on the dam ownership question will be taken by an electronic poll similar to the Survey. Per the DLA By-Laws, only DLA members in good standing (current 2026 members) will be allowed to vote and only one vote per owner of each taxable property parcel. The vote will be sent out by e-mail by Monday, June 22nd and the final result will be published by Wednesday, July 1st.
