When boating in the area of the new spillway be aware of the warning buoys and do not go past them. You cannot see from your craft, but there are large rocks at the entrance to the spillway. Entering this area is hazardous and is prohibited 4 The Papoose Paddle There has been an increase in paddle sports craft on the Lake. PADDLERS HAVE TO KNOW THE RULES OF THE ROAD FOR BOATING SAFETY. The number one rule is that a PFD/Lifejacket is required to be readily accessible, this means that if you are not wearing the lifejacket it must be within arm’s reach. It is best to wear the lifejacket, especially during busy days, inclement weather and night time. Consider it like wearing a bicycle helmet or wearing a seat belt in a car. Kayaks, canoes and other paddlers should never assume that powerboats can see you on the water. Always watch out for Power Boats. Keep a sound signaling device such as a whistle handy in order to attract attention if needed. At night a white light must be shown toward oncoming boat traffic. Paddlers may carry either a flashlight or lighted lantern that can show a white light in sufficient time to prevent a collision. This is both a federal and state regulation. Always make sure that you tell someone where and when you are paddling, also weather changes quickly so get to shore as quickly as possible. Paddle together, it is sometimes more fun and enjoyable when paddling alongside someone or in a group. • Wear your lifejacket • Watch out for Power Boats • Watch the weather • Have a whistle or sound signal handy • Always have a light at night or dusk All Power Boats Must Have Lights On At Night July 2014 • Please visit our new and improved website at www.lakemohawkcc.com Lake Mohawk Lake Mohawk Preservation Foundation Opportunities Do you have highly appreciated real estate, securities or a cash value life insurance policy you no longer need?

Now is the time your Club begins to plan its annual, much anticipated and enjoyed Fourth of July fireworks display. This annual patriotic event, which has been held at Lake Mohawk since its inception, has long enhanced the prestige of Lake Mohawk in the wider community and, indeed, the State. We are all aware of the national economic downturn that has, in one way or another, affected all of us. Though impacted as well, Lake Mohawk, as a result of good leadership and management, is in sound fiscal state. At the same time, good management practice dictates careful oversight of ancillary activities and expenditures. You would expect no less of us. Accordingly, we are asking you to consider being an active participant in this year's July 4th fireworks display by making a personal donation to this patriotic and entertaining activity. Our goal this year is $10,000. Yes… Thank you and Happy Spring! Jay Dunn, Trustee; Chairman, House Committee I am proud to donate to the July 4th Fireworks Display at Lake Mohawk ( ) Bronze $10.00 ( ) Silver $25 ( ) Gold $50 ( ) Other _________ Name ____________________________________ Address ____________________________________ ____________________________________ The Papoose Make Checks Payable to: Lake Mohawk Country Mail To: Lake Mohawk Country Club Club 21 The Boardwalk • Sparta, New Jersey 07871 July 2014 • Please visit our new and improved website at www.lakemohawkcc.com 7 Lake Mohawk 8 The Papoose July 2014 • Please visit our new and improved website at www.lakemohawkcc.com Lake Mohawk Senior Services - Senior On-going Services and Special Programs NEED A RIDE?

Many thanks to Mark Musilli, our new General Manager and the Board for listening and acting. I am hopeful we can now rebuild our membership and volunteer base to keep the area clean and safe. Safety and security patrols have been implemented. Lifeguards from other beach areas are kayaking over to check beach tags and the Lake Patrol Officers are coming in by boat throughout the day and night to check on things as well. Thanks to Rich Carlson for spearheading this very important effort. With Upper Lake Beach closed this season we are seeing more visitors and with that comes more maintenance and trash. We could really use your help in cleaning up, mowing the grass and general repairs. Please contact myself or Jeff Tensen our Dock Chairman if you can help out. We continue to have a serious problem with dogs being allowed to run loose on the Toboggan Park Beach property. Aside from the animal waste that is often left behind, it can be frightening to people to have barking dogs come running up to members and their CROSSROADS FINANCE Discount Mortgage "We Will Beat Any Other Lender's Rate & Fees Offer."* All Mammals Are Not The Same… *Exact Same Product, Terms, & Conditions.

Thank you to all of the families who have gone above and beyond in time, muscle and brainpower to help with the recent improvements. President Mike says, “So many came and went to help, about two dozen souls participated that weekend, plus Victoria Yuskaitis and Emily Vreeland who did a great job of ‘Jeremy proofing’ the spikes.” Some even hauled sand in the pouring rain. The project would not have been possible without the generous time and resources from Glenn Heathcote and the entire Gorvan family. How can we thank you? If you did not receive your newsletter with details, and want to be a SLB member, please email us at [email protected]. We will send you our donation form and add you to our growing community. Thank you to those who have paid dues and more as of June 1, Roessler, Zanetakos, Figiel, Dennehy, Gerdes, Sweet, Puglio, Brown, Maldonado, Tybur, Stark, Gorvan, Hotchkiss, Stephens and the Ciaburri’s, the latest addition to our Sleepy Lagoon Family. Welcome to the ‘hood. Our treasurer, Mike Dennehy, 70 Whipporwill collects the dues and all amounts help. The May and June events were a success. Ice Cream Sale at Sparta Day cleared $460. Thank you Mike, Mark and Dan for hauling down the freezer, Pam Vreeland for getting the ‘scream, and Wendy and Julia Miller, Sleepy Lagoon Pie Bakers with their Creations at the Memorial Day Picnic Claire, Erin and Emily Vreeland, Natasha, Nick and Skylar Gialanella and Reece and Zoe Abrams for doing a stellar job selling it. More thank you’s to the Tybur family for making the Memorial Day Picnic extra fun. Nick and Skylar Gialanella took first place in the pie making contest with an oh so sweet and delicious peach pie. First salsa, now pie. Either these kids are from the south or I see culinary school in their future. Runner up was Emma Rennie with a dreamy Lemon Meringue. Greg Yuskaitis took third with not one, but two, beautiful apple pies. Unsure who had more fun at the watermelon eating contest, the kids chowing down or the adults on the sidelines. Nicholas Figiel beat out his brother and friends in the older kid category, Skylar scored a prize again in the younger kid category and Michaela Dennehy won the wee one. Thank you to all who participated! Results of June’s Fishing Derby will be in the next issue. This month SLB members will be informally picnicking down at the lagoon to Celebrate the Fourth. Please remember to have your LMCC ID tags with you. As you use the beach this season, please take your trash with you. The bears, deer and now add in a neighborhood fox, love making a mess. On Sunday, July 13th Greg is rallying the troops for the Annual Canoeing/Rafting Down the Delaware. This seven mile ride is a ton of fun. Meet at the beach at 7am and return 5ish. See your email for more details. The cost includes a canoe or raft, life jackets, plus a BBQ lunch that you will stop for about half-way down. ~ Stacy Do you have any current pictures of Lake Mohawk that you would like to share?

There is a lot of lake to share and if everyone makes an effort to be more aware and respectful of others we are all going to be safer. Be aware of the damage an unnecessarily large wake could be doing to docks, boats and other property. Look behind you, how big is your wake? Be respectful of fishermen who enjoy quietly fishing in undisturbed peace. Please do your best to keep wakes to a minimum for those skiers who cherish that rare early morning flat water. Lastly, be very aware of traffic and skiers near the Boardwalk during the Ski Hawk practices on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 6:30 pm until sundown, and Saturday and Sunday mornings 9 am until noon. It is best for boats to travel slowly along the East Shore/Plaza end of the Boardwalk when entering and exiting the area. Keep in mind that non-powered vessels have the right of way over powerboats. The most important thing on the water is safety. Awareness, consideration and courtesy will ensure we all have a safe Lake for our families, our fellow boaters, and ourselves.

Blessed with great weather, great water conditions and a great crowd, the Ski Hawks opened our 2014 Show Ski Season with a bang. With only one cold day of practice, and a few new skiers, everyone one who skied, drove, announced or helped out in any way deserves congratulations for a job well done. I think everyone who came down to the Boardwalk on a splendid Monday morning should be proud of this team. Now we set our sights on the Fourth of July and a really fun show. On a more serious note, the Lake Mohawk Ski Hawks would like to share the greatest “secret” to a wonderful water skiing experience. Trust us folks; we have learned a few things water skiing over fifty years on Lake Mohawk! Being on the water to enjoy boating is fun and fun is what skiing is about to our young and not-so-young skiers. Start the day right, before you get to the dock, by preparing for a safe day on the lake. Nothing ends a day on the water more quickly than an injury; safety is the real secret to a great day on the lake. As boaters and skiers we have a responsibility to be safe for those on our boat, others on the lake, and the entire Lake Mohawk community. Everything we do as Ski Hawks is built on habits of safety. Ski Hawks understand how much fun it is to show off for your friends and family, nothing is more satisfying to us than to see huge crowds at our shows. Yet, every part of our show is built on a foundation of safety and consideration for our fellow skiers. Many of the stunts we perform require special equipment and training; our shows include a “do not try this at home” announcement for this reason. Only registered and insured Ski Hawk members have the privilege to use the jump ramp for any purpose. We understand that trying a new skill or trick is exciting, but not at the cost of an easily preventable injury.

We also want to take a moment to remind our fellow boaters that safety is everyone’s responsibility. While we welcome everyone to come to the Boardwalk area to watch us ski, we ask you do so safely, especially if you are arriving by boat. Please be aware of our boats and skiers during practices on Tuesday and Thursday evenings 6:00 p.m. until sundown and Saturday and Sunday mornings 9 a.m. until noon. It is best for boats to travel along the East Shore/Plaza end of the Boardwalk when entering and exiting the area. We encourage every boat operator to be focused, alert and aware every time you are on the lake, no matter where you are. Operating your boat in a courteous and considerate manner increases everyone’s safety and enjoyment. We ask you to be especially alert when approaching the north end of the lake during the time of a Ski Hawks’ practice. Back to the fun part of Ski Hawks; at the end of July we are off to Massachusetts and the Eastern Region Show Ski Tournament. This last weekend in July, we take our show on the road to Holyoke, Massachusetts. We hope to have a few skiers competing individually, some for the first time. Best of luck to all of you! Keep in mind August is a great time to work on new skills. Please contact J Todd Muth with any of your membership questions or visit us on the web: www.lakemohawkskihawks.com. See you on the water! The Ski Hawks Inflatable Red Bouys are Important in the Lake The inflatable red bouys in the Lake mark the diffusers that pump Alum into the water thus preventing Algae from growing. Please keep away from the red bouys at high speeds. If you feel an unusual tug it may not be your skier or tube, it may be the Alum lines. If for some reason you caught a line please dislodge your boat from the line.

In the Snipe fleet’s first race the Mackey brothers, Michael and Christopher, won the start but the team of Constance Gill and Angela Hopkins was able to slide through the Mackey’s lee and lead for most of the race.
