Historic Lake Maps Now On Website

Click HERE

Frank Micale found his hand drawn collection of lake maps depicting several options of how Koshkonong might be "improved" for future generations.

The best anyone can guess is these maps were drafted sometime during the late 1950s or early 1960s.

We recently had them professionally scanned so we could share these maps with everyone. We also had them enlarged and will have them at the annual meeting on Saturday.

A few are just plain goofy. One is workable. And one - building a giant Atoll in the lake with a bridge/causeway traveling across the lake via the atoll , is really out-of-the-box dreaming.

Note that cars would enter onto the causeway from roughly Ray Lunder's frontyard, and then proceed across the lake and exit roughly in Jeff Folk's backyard.

Sure would make Ray's drive to Norm's Hideaway that much quicker.
