From my beginning with MCTA and even from the beginning of my living in Menominee County, the word that was used time and time again was "unique".   It was used by politicians, lobbyists and attorneys when they heard of the set up of Menominee County and the Menominee Reservation, and both forms of County and Tribal Government.  For years I objected to that adjective but have realized that is does describe the situation here, and have reluctantly accepted it.  

 

MCTA is also unique, our Mission is to represent our members who are property owners and Taxpayers in this County, but because they are not full time residents, few of them are able to vote here, or take part in local government and events.  Your MCTA Board and Management team are your eyes and ears at County Board Meetings, School Board meetings and association with members of our community.

 

 

 

I’m pleased to announce the publication of the Spring Issue of Smoke Signals: Along the Lake. As promised we have redesigned Smoke Signals to incorporate the 4-color process throughout the issue and are incorporating more photography. Photos and other relevant Legend Lake information is always needed and welcome, please forward to me at sfoley@wi.rr.com and we’ll try to publish them. Your printed version will arrive soon. Remember to patronize our advertising partners, without them Smoke Signals: Along the Lake would not be possible. Best regards, Steve Foley Publisher.  Click Here for a Website Copy

 

The Landscaping project at the Legend Lake home of Walter and Cathy Ratschan has won an Honorable Mention Award by the North American Hardscape Federation.

 

 

While March Madness may have come to a close, the Legend Lake community should take pride that our Menominee neighbors made an important contribution to this year’s festivities.  The Menominee Tribe’s lumber industry has an impressive history that continues on yet today.  A recent article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel highlighted the fact that the wood planks that were used for this year’s competition in New Orleans came from Menominee County, Wisconsin.  The Menominee Tribe itself is proud of the role it played saying this “For the Menominee, it's a source of pride that the games will be played on lumber cut in their mill from trees harvested from their forest.” Click here for the full article --  http://www.jsonline

 

 

 

 

It's that time again for those who need to have their septic system inspected/pumped.
The cards will be mailed to owners in April that have not had their septic systems
inspected/pumped in the last three (3) years.  Regardless if you have or have not
used your septic system; it must be inspected and/or pumped by a licensed State Certified Inspector or Pumper every three (3) years.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Are you looking for a something to break the late winter blues?  Maybe a little green will help.  No we're not talking money, but a celebration of St. Patrick's Day.  A few miles down the road from my year round house (me being the wed admin) and only about 45 minutes from my lake house on Legend Lake is a great St. Patrick's Day festival in the city of "New Dublin" as the city of New London renames itself.  Just drive south to Shawano, keep going on highway 22 on through Clintonville and catch highway 45 into New London.
