At our Wednesday, April 5th meeting, Kathy Pfleger, Master Gardener and Lake Gaston resident will talk about how we can landscape along the Lake Gaston shoreline with native plants, trees, and shrubs. She will discuss soil and plant basics, and how to comply with Dominion's Shoreline Management Plan.

Water levels at Gaston and Roanoke Rapids are managed to promote fish spawn from March 1st to June 15th. While lake levels are targeted to remain below 200' mean sea level (ft-msl) at Lake Gaston, maintaining downstream flow is a primary goal. Dominion states:

During the striped bass spawning season (March 1 – June 15), water may be stored in Lake Gaston between elevations 200.00 and 201.00 for weekend downstream flow augmentation.

This is considered "normal operations" during the fish spawn season. If rainfall increases significantly in the Roanoke River watershed, Dominion Power may enter "emergency operations". Lake levels may then exceed 201'. 

We will do our best to keep you informed if it appears lake levels may exceed 201'.

March - Monthly Board Meeting

Perhaps, for the very first time in the history of the LGA, we are taking our monthly board meeting on the road in support of our Virginia members.  

The Lake Gaston Association will hold its next monthly board meeting on Wednesday, March 1, 2023,
at 10:00 a.m. at the Mecklenburg County Middle School / High School Complex located at 25001 Highway 58, Baskerville, VA 23915. 

Guest Speaker: Paul Nichols – Mecklenburg County School Superintendent  

Topic: New look for school campuses and a tour of their new facility

The meeting is open to the public, members, and non-members alike, and of course all LGA members are invited to attend.  So gather up your Virginia neighbors and come join us for this most exciting historical event.
