Natures Gift - Our Responsibility - Our Children's Legacy
Mission Statement: We are pledged to improve the water quality of the Sauk River Chain of Lakes in Stearns County, Minnesota, not only for our generation, but for our children and future generations.
Your Sauk River Chain of Lakes (SRCL) Association will start managing the gambling operations at Shady’s Long Shot (formerly Lakeview Bar and Grill at the Rich Spring Golf Course) starting on December 1, 2019. Gambling opportunities include: Pulltabs, eTabs, Bar Bingo on Wednesdays, Meat Raffle on Fridays, and other specialty games.
In addition to the great food and drinks at Shady’s, you can now support the SRCL Association by participating in the gaming available.
We NEED volunteers to help with Bar Bingo on Wednesday nights and Meat Raffle on Friday nights! Please contact Matthew Pelant at 320-260-8995 or mdpelant@icloud.com.

NOTICE
Hello SRCL Homeowner,
The MN DNR has confirmed Zebra Mussels found on Knaus Lake. At this time, we are asking homeowners to inspect your docks and boat lifts. If you find anything suspicious, please contact the MN DNR as describe below or contact Matt Noska 763-913-5654 noska76@aol.com or John Rocky 320-493-7992 rockyjohnmn@gmail.com.
The MN DNR will be adding Knaus Lake to MN lakes infested with Zebra mussels in the coming weeks. Below is the announcement from the MN DNR.
Letter from Minnesota DNR.
We confirmed two zebra mussels on Knaus Lake yesterday. We will conduct some dock/lift searches this fall, although will likely continue monitoring their distribution next summer. As of now, we will be listing Knaus Lake infested. Further monitoring and searching will determine if other basins will eventually be listed. Since the fall is the best time to check your dock, lift or equipment, we would like to hear back from any resident that locates one on their property. More information can be found here: http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/invasives/aquaticanimals/zebramussel/index.html.
If you suspect that you have found a zebra mussel, please follow these steps:
1. Note the exact location where the specimen was found
2. Take a picture and collect the specimen in question
3. Report it to your Invasive Species Specialist (Christine Jurek: 320-223-7847). Email would be preferred: Christine.jurek@state.mn.us
Thanks for any assistance in reporting any additional zebra mussels.
