The Cameron Park Community Services District has begun its seasonal lake water quality program. As part of this effort, we added an organic blue pond dye to the lake today.  This is a proactive, early-season treatment that helps reduce larger algae issues later in the year and supports overall lake health.

This UV blocking dye is a common, professional water management tool used to help keep lakes healthy and looking good throughout the warmer months.  It is not a pesticide or hazardous material and is safe for fish, birds, wildlife, and people.

What does it do?

• It helps mitigate algae blooms by preventing UV penetration, ultimately creating a healthier environment for the lake, aquatic life, and residents who enjoy it
• By blocking red-orange and blue-violet light waves it disrupts the UV light needed for underwater aquatic plant growth, reducing the growth of unwanted aquatic weeds

We also cleared and restarted the two floating fountains, which had been clogged with winter debris. They now help circulate and aerate the lake at the shallower end of the lake, while the diffused aeration system continues operating in the deeper, south end.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the District. Thank you for helping us keep Cameron Park Lake clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone!

We are pleased to share that the robotic parking arm at Cameron Park Lake is now fully operational! After working diligently to resolve a few initial challenges, we are excited to announce that the system will officially go live beginning at 6:00 AM on Monday, September 1, 2025.

We sincerely thank our community members and visitors for their patience, support, and understanding throughout this process. Your cooperation has been greatly appreciated, and we look forward to continuing to provide a safe, welcoming, and well-maintained experience at Cameron Park Lake.
