Throw back to 1982 or ‘83. Yep, that’s me! Who remembers when the snack shack/bathrooms etc were located in this spot at Emerald lake? And of course the stone fence next to it.
Always looking for old photos of way back when at the lake so should anyone have any, please drop them in the comments

Yesterday, which was a very busy day at Emerald Lake my employee and I witnessed a couple of incidences and we want to remind everyone to be sure to follow the rules when it comes to boating safety. Children should have life jackets on at all times. No exceptions. Parental supervision is required. And please be sure to not exceed boat rental weight and occupancy allowance.
Adults must have a life jacket onboard at all times. All of this information is on the waiver and must be followed. I also verbally tell parents that children must wear them at all times. 
This is a serious safety issue of life jackets not being on children and sadly we see it too often.
Parents please keep an eye on your children as well. My employee caught some young boys bludgeoning a crayfish to death with a rock. Their reasoning was the shell was cracked and suffering.
The reason for the cracked shell is that crayfish was molting. There is no reason for that crayfish to be killed brutally by a rock.
We sell fish nets for kids if they want to catch and release critters but please remember to be kind and return them to where they belong . With two weeks left of being open daily we want everyone to have a great time and should you have any questions about our rules please come up and ask us .
