June 1st is the date for this year’s Lake Clean-up Day. In fact, we would like to make June Lake Clean-up Month with our kickoff on June 1st. This year we will have two manned stations on June 1st with dumpsters from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. They will be at Washburn’s as before and this year the other station will be at AF Wake at the south end of Eaton Ferry Bridge. We hope that we can count on you to help with this very worthwhile project.
Almost all spiders are venomous. Danger to humans is determined by the toxicity of the venom and the delivery capabilities. Black Widow’s venom is more toxic than a rattlesnake but has much smaller fangs. Interestingly, like all spiders, they inject a digestive enzyme into the victim causing it to liquify, so they literally drink their meal. Like perhaps many in this room may do.

As you will note as you peruse the pages of this website, the Lake Gaston Association is heavily involved in protecting and preserving our Lake Gaston Community on many fronts. The work involved in educating ourselves, keeping our members informed, and pursuing resolution of issues is extensive.
