We'd like more than 150 trees, we send an email out to all 2000 residents, and ask them to bring their trees to the lake. A couple of us also will drive around picking up trees.
We've made some improvements to a park at the lake, and put in a dock for kids to fish from, with a fish feeder. Also the availability of reasonably priced kayaks, has created a lot more use of the lake. This increased visibility has gotten the HOA to be very open to more funding.
The fact that the guys fishing the lake put in alot of work with projects around the lake really helps also.
Over the last 4 years we have probably sank 300 trees, so hopefully we are building a base of trees.
