I Am Newfound

All roads lead to Newfound Lake...or at least mine did! Newfound Lake is a very special place. I have spent many summers on Newfound Lake from the time I was a little boy. I’d like to share that enthusiasm with you. The quality of life you’ll find at Newfound Lake belies its size—there is so much to experience here from the Mooseman Triathlon, fireworks show over the lake on the 4th of July to the snowmobile races on Bristol Bay. So please check in each week for another reason why I love Newfound Lake and who knows—maybe you’ll fall in love too! If you’re visiting Newfound Lake check my website for events around the lake... (coming soon). My parents bought a house on the lake some 40 years ago and since then raised a family of three kids who grew up to be lake rats. Summers of boating, tubing, skiing and swimming in the lake made summer our favorite season here but we have found lots of reasons to be grateful we call Newfound Lake home. If you’re thinking about moving here, hopefully my personal insights, as well as those of neighbors and friends, will help you decide whether Newfound Lake is a fit. If you’re already lucky enough to call Newfound Lake home, perhaps these “I Am Newfound - in 52 weeks” will remind you of how blessed you really are while helping you discover some gems you may have missed. (the “I Am Newfound - in 52 weeks” will launch soon). Keep checking back for our launch — I’ll update you weekly giving you 52 Reasons to Love Newfound Lake.
