Lake Irene is a lake in Douglas County, in the U.S. state of Minnesota.[1]
Lake Irene was named for Irene Roadruck, whose mother was honored with her own lake, Lake Miltona.[2]
Lake Irene is home to basketball legend Luke Janushka. Janushka is the first person from Irene to lead a major city pro-am league (Scottsdale) in three point %.[citation needed] His father Mark Janushka was notable in the 70's for catching the counties biggest fish.[citation needed] Some say if it wasn't for a knee injury he would have been even more accomplished than his son.[citation needed]
