Annual Boat Parade
Farlain Lake has been experiencing unusually high water levels for the past few years which have not receded significantly over the summer. That, combined with the results of a member polls in 2018 and again in 2019 to determine the interest in a Boat Parade resulted in the decision to cancel the Parade at this point. Many members of the community either did not launch their boats or are dealing with the impact of flooding on their properties. We hope to bring it back at some point in future!
