Dear Fellow Users of Big Cedar Lake,

As many of you know there is some momentum and discussion within the Big Cedar Lake PRD and community at large to ban and/or restrict the use of wakeboats on Big Cedar Lake. In January a presentation was given to the PRD and distributed to the home owners assocaiation asserting many false conjectures about wakeboats harming the shorelines and ecosystem of BCL. At the Febru meeting, a rebuttal presentation refuting all of these untruths was given in an attempt to set the record straight on facts, or lack thereof in their case. Subsequently, during the March meeting, the United States Geological Service gave their yearly presentation regarding the health of BCL and also disproved all of the assertions that the lake was facing negative environmental impacts. They found BCL to be as healthy as ever including year over year drops in phosphorus levels, as well as algae, and water clarity has never been better.

This petition is being distributed with the hope that we can show the PRD just how much support there is for wake boats and, just as importantly, that any kind of ban or restriction on the water of BCL is not acceptable without a significant amount of proof of damage or destruction. This kind of rhetoric can create a slippery slope with no end in sight.

Please show your support against this ban/restriction request by adding your name to this petition. Thanks so much for all your support!
