The Lake Thunderbird Association Board of Directors is disappointed to inform you that our Lake Manager, TJ Tieman, resigned this morning effective immediately. TJ shared that that during this 90-day initial period, he realized that his career goals do not align with this role.

Paul Byrd will assume the position of acting Lake Manager until a new one is in place. Please contact him at lakemanager@lakethunderbird.us.

The Board is committed to helping our staff support the community, as they have so capably done in the past. We ask for your support during this time.

The lake is approximately one foot below normal lake levels which increases the possibility of shoreline damage.

For this reason, we are going to yellow flag the lake effective 10/15/2025 in order to protect both common and private property shorelines.

*Yellow flag means the entire lake is designated as no wake until further notice.

Our team has completed the repair and water service has been restored. There is no boil order required for this incident.

Thank you for your patience!
