July Splash Newsletter Available Now
Posted July 12, 2021
The July 2021 Splash edition is available by clicking here. Highlights include an update on road projects in and around Peaceful Valley starting this week and next, and on the steps and sidewalk project at the pool. Also a reminder of the upcoming Gasconade County Threshers Show this coming weekend and the Gasconade County Fair at the end of the month. One of the road projects is the replacement of culverts along Lake Shore Dr., between the lodge and the lower entrance. The work starts in earnest this week and will take about two weeks to complete, weather permitting. Portions of the road will be closed at various times and places as these are replaced. This only happens about once every 50 years or so please so please be patient as it will be a very temporary inconvenience.

Catch and Release Implemented at Peaceful Valley
Posted: June 21, 2021
Our success with eradicating the lake vegetation that plagued us over the past few years has a major downside for anglers—there’s much less fish cover for smaller fish to hide while they grow. Also, the staggering increase in fishing last year during the pandemic ended up significantly decreasing the sport fish population in the lake. For the next year, we’re asking anglers to practice catch and release for Bass, Crappie, and Bluegill to allow them to replenish the stock. We do ask that you help eliminate some invasive species, notably Drum, and Blue and Flathead Catfish. If you catch these please either keep them or dispose of properly.

Road Construction Project Now Underway
Posted June 3, 2021; UPDATE: July 27, 2021
Our road repair and resurfacing project has begun with the replacement of culverts along Lake Shore Drive from the Lodge to the Bridge near the lower entrance. The culvert work is now complete. The road resurfacing contractor should be here within the next week or so to do their work and it should take between 7-10 days or more, depending on weather, to complete the project.
Over on Lake Shore Dr, between the beach and the dam, we're putting sealer on the three speed humps. This will be a multi-day project as the type of heavy duty sealer we're using takes 24-hours to cure, so we're only doing one half of each hump at a time. Watch out for orange reflective cones and please stay on the other side. Once the sealer has cured, we're going to repaint the humps with yellow traffic marking paint. If you want to avoid the speed bumps during the next few days, take E. Skyline Dr. instead of turning onto Lake Shore near the beach.
