News & Information
In 2020, Dixie Lake experienced an extended harmful algae bloom (HAB) from late summer into the fall. This HAB was documented by the State of Michigan and signs were posted along the shoreline warning residents to avoid contact with algal scums and to keep children and pets out of the water, if possible, to avoid ingestion or extensive exposure. Since then, management of algae has remained a priority for the Dixie Lake Improvement Board. For more information about HABs click here. For an explanation of how HABs form click here. To find out ways that you can help to limit algae growth in Dixie Lake, please visit the Watershed and Links and Information tabs on this website.

A video explaining some of the challenges in managing a shallow lake has been provided by Aaron Parker from the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) and can be viewed at the link below:
