Letter from the President After a long winter with snow, cold and ice on the Lake we’re all looking forward to a great summer on the Lake!

As President of the Klinger Lake Association, I work with a very dedicated Board to fulfill our mission to preserve, protect and improve Klinger Lake. I’m constantly reminded of how fortunate we all are to be part of such a terrific lake community, many of us with deep familial roots that go back over 100 years and keeping Klinger safe and clean is our top priority.

Monitoring, and when necessary, reacting to changes in water quality, is one of the most important things for which the Board has responsibility. We continue to monitor the lake water for invasive species, excessive phosphorus and chlorophyll levels, and support the annual Clean Boats/Clean Waters event at the DNR Boat Launch. You play a part here too; please avoid using phosphorusheavy fertilizers for your lawns and gardens.

The prompt payment of your annual membership and fireworks contribution is appreciated. The $50 membership contribution has not changed. This year we are asking for a contribution of $100 or more for the fireworks in celebration of the United States 250th birthday. Online payments are preferred and there are no transaction fees when making payments online. Check out the KLA or Sturgis Area Community Foundation websites for more information.

In the meantime, here's a quick summary of important dates for your summer calendar: • Annual Meeting - June 27th, 10:00 am at the Klinger Lake Country Club • Annual Fourth of July Boat Parade – starts at 1:00 . . . line up in front of the Marina • Fireworks – July 4th (rain date July 5th) at dusk – and we will again be marking the “fall out zone”; all watercraft and attendees must stay outside of the buoys circling the launch barge area.

• The 2026 Aquatic Invasive Species event and mobile boat wash is July 11th Please take a moment to refresh your knowledge of Boating Safety Rules and Regulations, which we have summarized in this Directory. As of this printing, we have yet to receive confirmation that St Joseph County will be offering in-person Boater Safety Certification classes, so for the time being, the on-line courses are your only option.

And finally, please email us with any changes or corrections to your Directory listing using the Update Form at https://www.klingerlakeassociation.org/memberupdate-form.html.

Stay safe, have fun and thank you for your support of the KLA. See you around the lake.

Highlights of Michigan (Highlights are provided for convenience. A complete listing of Michigan Boating Laws is available from the St Joseph County Sheriff or from www.michigan.gov/dnr/things-to-do/boating/rules-and-regs)

OPERATION OF VESSELS and AGE RESTRICTIONS – Boats

Persons less than 12 years of age: • May operate a boat powered by a motor of no more than 6 horsepower (hp) legally without restrictions • May operate a boat powered by a motor of more than 6 hp but no more than 35 hp legally only if they:

• Have been issued a boating safety certificate and have it on board the boat and

• Are directly supervised on board by a person age 16 or older who holds a boater safety certificate • May not legally operate a boat powered by a motor of more than 35 hp under any circumstances Those born on or after July 1, 1996 may operate a boat legally only if they have been issued a boating safety certificate and have it on board the boat.

Those born before July 1, 1996 may operate a boat legally without a boating safety certificate.

OPERATION OF VESSELS and AGE RESTRICTIONS – Personal Watercraft (“PWC” e.g. WaveRunners, SeaDoos) Persons less than 14 years of age may not legally operate a PWC

Those 14 and 15 years of age may legally operate a PWC only if they have been issued a boating safety certificate and: • They are accompanied on board by his/her parent or legal guardian or by a person at least 21 years of age who has been designated by the parent or legal guardian, or • They are operating or riding the PWC at a distance of not more than 100 feet from his or her parent or legal guardian or designee who is riding another PWC Those at least 16 years of age and born after December 31, 1978 may operate a PWC legally only if they have been issued a boating safety certificate Those born on or before December 31, 1978 may operate a PWC legally without a boating safety certificate

PERSONAL FLOTATION DEVICE REQUIREMENTS (“PFD”)

All vessels — including canoes and kayaks — must be equipped with a PFD for each person on board or being towed. USGA approved type I, II, or III that are of the proper size must be readily available. If the vessel is less than 16 feet or is a canoe or kayak, you can choose either a wearable or throwable (type IV) type PFD. All children under the age of 6 must wear a PFD whenever the vessel is under motion. There will be no exceptions to this law per St. Joseph County Marine Patrol.

With the increased use of Stand-up Paddle Boards, please understand that a PFD is not required, but highly recommended.

Water Safety Regulations OTHER BOATER SAFETY ADVICE

Be sure to check all your other safety devices — fire extinguishers, lights and horns — for correct operation after the winter. Fire extinguishers are required on most vessels. Make sure they are properly charged, are in working order, and readily available if you have need of one.

In Michigan, power-driven vessels are to travel in a counter-clockwise direction around the lake while maintaining safe distance from shore and other vessels.

Proper distance control is very important. When operating a vessel or being towed, the vessel or person being towed must be at least 100 feet from a shoreline, a moored or anchored vessel, a dock or a raft, and any person in the water, unless operating at no-wake speed. This includes maintaining proper distance from a sailboat.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ‘WAKE BOATS’ WHEN OPERATING IN ‘WAKE MODE’

It is recommended to operate ‘wake boats’ in depths of 20’ (or more) and at least 500’ from shore to minimize wake impact. https://www.klingerlakeassociation.org/wake-boating.html

ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION

Although it is legal to have an open container on board, it is illegal to operate any vessel under the influence. Please operate safely.

HOURS OF WATERCRAFT OPERATION

Legal hours of operations vary based on the type of vessel. Personal watercraft can be legally operated only between 8am and sunset. Boats may not tow a skier, wakeboard, inflatable, or other contrivance between 1 hour after sunset until 1 hour before sunrise. Please be considerate of others.

CLEAN, DRAIN and DRY

A recent law requires all boaters to remove all drain plugs from bilges, ballast tanks and live wells every time a boat or watercraft is removed from the water for trailering. All water must be drained from these locations as well. Trailers, boats and conveyances must also be free of all aquatic organisms, including plants. Unused bait must be disposed of in a manner so as not to allow it back into a body of water. In the past, these items were a courtesy…now it’s THE LAW. This new law can be enforced by any law enforcement officer.
