Residents advised to stay out of Silver Lake during weed treatment

It’s going to be hot, but stay away from Silver Lake this weekend.

Silver Lake was chemically treated on June 3 to control the growth of nuisance water plans and, according to the Grafton Recreation Department, swimming, boating, fishing, or “watering of livestock” is not advised until June 4. Irrigation is off the table until June 8.

While Silver Lake beach is now closed and without lifeguards, multiple people have been using it as summer weather heats up.

Recreation Director Jen Anderson said the beach will open on June 26. Hours and fees will be announced next week.
