Warm sunny weather with a little rain now and then, actually hot during the day and comfortable at night. The lake water level receding . Actually Dickey Lake has dropped three feet since the high water level when the ice went out. Loons have returned and ducks are paddling around. Black flies are coming out and ready to suck up all that city blood. Be prepared. Several boats have been launched for the summer. Caution on the water though as logs and smaller pieces of wood continue to float around.

Recently several garbage bins were toppled, some moved a distance and some destroyed along Skeen Road and Jennison Road. The alleged cultrits are most likely black bears.
As a reminder, and a caution, do not leave garbage for any length of time in any outdoor bin or container. Racoons are destroying plastic garbage pails this spring, but “the big messes” are most likely cause by bear.
Black bear sightings have been reported in the immediate Shawano area.
