VLA Members Gather to Celebrate 50 Years of Service

The Vermilion Lake Association celebrated its 50th anniversary with a picnic last Saturday. Members reminisced about the first 50 years protecting and improving Lake Vermilion and discussed the challenges of the next fifty. Camp Vermilion on Wakemup Bay provided a fabulous setting with indoor and outdoor seating to enjoy a free fried chicken banquet served throughout the afternoon.

Despite the hot weather, the turnout was strong, making this event one of the best-attended ever.
