Windigo Shallows & Shorelines – Summer 2026 Edition
The Summer 2026 WLPOA newsletter previews a reformatted Annual Meeting — moved to the morning of Saturday, July 25 — and reports on the second season of Windigo's boat decontamination station, now backed by Sawyer County Sheriff's enforcement for boaters who skip it.
