There is plenty of money still in the account. As of the Summer of 2002 they had more than $70,000 in operating funds. Most of it gets used for new hazard buoys at about $150 each. Each year many have to be replaced. That, in itself, is costly and takes a lot of volunteer hours.

The solar lights cost nearly that same amount (no kidding). Spending big bucks to put solar lights on the 300 or more buoys already on the lake would be an utter waste of money and volunteer time. Especially given the fact that there is a very small number of boaters out and about after dark. Most of those who are out after dark already know where the buoys, and unmarked shallows, are.

Hate to rain on your parade, friend, but those are the facts.
