Lake Township Park Pavilion rentals are filling up for the 2019 season. For rental details and a calendar or availability, please visit the Parks page. The disc golf course renovations have been completed. Click here for the new disc golf course layout! Come out and give it a try. Thanks to the hole sponsors and the Sand Ridge Golf League who have helped with this. There are still some hole sponsor opportunities open. Contact Bob Clark at the Township hall for information. There are several tournaments being planned and we will have a grand opening event upon completion.

Garbage/Recycling Request -Due to road construction projects in the Township or service provider has requested that trash and recycle containers are put out by the road the night before your scheduled pick up date. They are altering some of the pick up times to work around construction projects and it will effect several routes. Thank you!

Curbside Recycling has started in Lake Township! If you haven't signed up and received a container, it's not too late. Just contact the Township Hall and we'll get you up and running. There is no cost to residents and they pick up once every two weeks the same day as regular garbage is collected. Join hundreds of others committed to helping reduce landfill waste.

Curbside Recycling has been a hit in Lake Township! If you haven't signed up and received a container, it's not too late. Just contact the Township Hall and we'll get you up and running. They pick up once every two weeks the same day as regular garbage is collected. Join hundreds of others committed to helping reduce landfill waste. Lake Township residents recycled 137 tons of material this last year! That is 18 pounds per resident (well above the average of 11-12 pounds state average). We now have 621 residents recycling or just about 50% of all households participating. Lake Township is proud to have started offering this service at no charge to our residents!
