Horseshoe Lake AIS inspections usually occur on major holidays and weekends mid May thru September. We usually qualify for 200-300 hours, paid by Crow Wing County. Additionally we add 200 hours paid for by the HLPOA water protection fund. (approx $900-$2000) Lack of inspectors was a challenge in 2022.  If interested in being a paid inspector, please reach out to: info@horseslakemn.com.

Looking to help offset our inspections costs? Become a donor and we will acknowledge you in our newsletter, website and annual meeting. Half day sponsor = $50; One day sponsor = $100; Weekend sponsor = $200.
