Jamie Brockmeyer
President
As an experienced educator, dedicated real estate agent and full-time lake resident, I am committed to preserving our lake through responsible stewardship, transparent leadership, open communication and informed decision-making.
I will protect and preserve Turtle Lake against threats such as: invasive species, shoreline erosion, high geese population, while ensuring safety and protecting our property values for future generations!
Peg Chambers

The Chambers’ families have been riparians on Turtle Lake since 1978. We love Turtle Lake.
My experience includes serving as TLIPA treasurer (2018-24), HOA president (2004-25), on multiple community task forces in Glenview, IL, and over forty years in consulting and project management for IBM and Hewlett Packard.
My specific goals include improving the transparency and accountability of the Turtle Lake Improvement and Protection Association through both open meetings and communications.
I will work diligently to ensure Turtle Lake’s beauty and health are protected for our children and grandchildren.

Jack Foucault
DIRECTOR
My family has lived close and with a great view of Turtle Lake for over 20 years. We have enjoyed being on the lake whenever we can tubing and fishing. I am an avid fisherman and Turtle Lake is a special resource and now the jewel 💎 in Walworth county . I am volunteering on the board to help protect Turtle Lake from destruction as a fishery. I only want the best for Turtle Lake and I will never stop fighting to protect this precious resource.
Scott Nowicki
DIRECTOR
Turtle Lake is special to a lot of people and we are lucky to have so many that are looking to get or stay involved in its future. I am not a full time resident but after renovating a home in the Crystal Bowl, investing my money and time into helping build a local business, and volunteering my time on the board while leading the buoy committee, my family and I are proud of what we’ve accomplished in our community. I hope to continue bringing level-headed thinking and positivity to the team.
