A Note from President Tim Stieve

Hello Spirit Lake Improvement Association Members:


At the Annual meeting, elections for the Board were held and I wanted to introduce the Board for the 2015-2016 year. However, before I do that, I wanted to take a few moments to send out some BIG THANK YOU’S:

Joe Burger – Joe spent the last 14 years as our President, and four years prior to that as a Board of Directors member.  During his time as President, Joe has guided the SLIA through many major projects, including the Dredging project and our current ongoing Algae Study. Joe will continue for the next year as a Board of Directors Member.

Jim Poirier – Jim has served on the SLIA Board since 1989 - WOW! Jim served as President, Vice President, Treasurer (the last 10 years), and Board of Directors. Jim was instrumental in developing and maintaining the SLIA Website and has headed up the Kids' Fishing Contest.  Unfortunately, Jim is dealing with some health issues that will no longer allow him to serve, but no doubt Jim has done his fair share and then some. 

Phyllis Kolecheck – Phyllis has served as the SLIA Secretary for the past 14 years. Taking all the minutes over so many years for so many meetings is no small task! Additionally, Phyllis has handled maintaining and ordering the SLIA clothing that is available. 

If you get the chance to meet or speak with these very dedicated people, please take a few minutes to extend them each a very big THANK YOU for all that they have done!!!
