Mohegan Lake Day July 15th, 2012 Schedule

Please note this schedule is subject to minor tweaking; please stay tuned. 

A water taxi, identifiable by a hand-sewn flag--details on the color/design of the flag will be forthcoming--will be servicing the celebration, providing transit from beach to beach, from 1pm to 7pm.

Mohegan Highlands Property Owners Association Beach
1:00pm

Turtle Talk by "New York State Class I Licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator and specialize in native turtles," Patricia Johnson.  As locals know, there is a robust turtle population in, and around, Mohegan Lake.  Join us for Ms. Johnson's presentation, refreshments and--possibly--another presentation from a science-fair-award-winning local student on a related subject.


Section 1 Beach
 2:30pm

A demonstration of the Mohegan Lake weed harvester.  I misplaced my videos of the harvester in action (I swear I have a couple), but you can see one like ours in action below [note: ours is cooler and has a better paint job].  This may be accompanied by a talk on the fish of Mohegan Lake with tips on how to catch--and release--them.

More details will follow, but be aware that each class of racing vessels will have singles and doubles categories with single  and double paddle subcategories--or something like that. Note: register 30mins prior to the race; more importantly--you must wear a life-jacket.

4:30 Sailboats



Mohegan Colony Beach
