Beach Closing 2022
Thank you to everyone that came out to Beach Closing!
It was a beautiful night at our lake. Special thanks to our set up crew: Tricia and Brian Curiale, Lindsay and George Smith, Steve Boianelli, Dave Martin, Melanie Gessman, Hillary Ellis, Lauren White & Kate Brady.
Help Needed with Off-season Trash Collection at the Beach
TLA is looking for families to volunteer to help with the trash/recycling at
the lake during the offseason. The link to the Sign Up Genius is below.
You would be in charge of taking the trash up the evening of the day you
selected and getting the cans back to the beach after it has been
collected the following day. The Sign Up Genius is organized by week
and tells you whether it’s just trash or trash & recycling that need to go
out. Please see the link for more info and consider selecting a week to
help!

Killdeer Maintenance and Lake Lowering
Killdeer lake will be lowered in October in order to mow the dam and conduct
other maintenance around the lake. We anticipate that the lake will be lowered
through the end of November.
Phragmites Watch
Phragmites (Phragmites Australias) is a common invasive reed found
throughout New Jersey. We have Phragmites popping up in different locations
along our lakes edges. If you are a lakefront homeowner, you must cut and
control this plant to prevent it from spreading. You can google Phragmites
Australias if you are unclear as to what it looks like. Contact the Lake
Committee at tamaraclakeswater@gmail.com if you are uncertain about its
presence on your property.
It is time to take your boat
home where it is safe
because:
School is out and you
won't be using it
