No registration is required for this event. Fishing will end approximately at 10:30 a.m.; please ensure you arrive on time. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission will stock the lake. This event is sponsored by the fantastic Hot Springs Village Parks and Recreation Department, the HSV Lakes Ecology group, and the HSV Anglers Club.
Please bring your fishing pole if you have one. A limited supply of poles will be available for use if you do not have one; however, they may not last long. If you have time this holiday weekend, please stop out and enjoy this great event presented by some amazing groups!
Hot Springs Village POA is upgrading lighting in the POA buildings in Garland County going forward. To save money, the POA is utilizing a partnership with Entergy to install and replace lights and fixtures with more efficient options. Crews from A-1 LED Lightning will be doing the work in the buildings. The POA will reduce costs by a significant amount and also demonstrates a dedication to sustainability. Saving energy costs is important to the POA, and they recommend following up with your energy provider to explore similar options for your home.
Hot Springs Village POA members will once again be able to avail themselves of free topsoil on Fridays in June, with the possibility of extending into July. You do have to be a member of the POA to gain access, so be sure to bring your member card when you arrive. The topsoil will be available from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. and is entirely self-serve. No staff members will be present to assist with loading or to operate the equipment. If you are interested, head to the Pit on Terlingua Drive to get the soil that has been created from dredge from the lake and leaf compost from drop-offs. A perfect blend for all your gardening needs, and will be available while supplies last.
