Passengers can be dropped off by using the driveway numbered 19765 (Dick and Carolyn Brammel).

 

Come to meet and greet with fellow Big Sanders with coffee and donuts and view interesting and informative display tables from 10-10:30. During the meeting portion of the event hear from Ann and Chris Hilgers new co-chairs of the Big Sand Charitable fund, be informed on AIS inspections, Big Sand’s water quality monitoring program, and all of the activities of your Big Sand Lake Association. Immediately following the meeting, approximately 11:30, enjoy a pulled pork picnic lunch provided by BSLA. There will be birthday cake for dessert in celebration of Betty Corwin’s 94th birthday.

Even more conveniently, you can renew or join on-line by clicking on the 'Membership' tab in the left hand column on this page. Your $40 membership dues will help fund, among other things, the installation of the safety buoys marking shallow water, on-going water quality and invasive species monitoring, this website and the webcams. It's a bargain! Thank you for supporting your lake association and helping to keep Big Sand the enjoyable beautiful place we all love.
