Walloon Lake Association and Conservancy Details
The mission of the Walloon Lake Association and Conservancy (WLAC) is to conserve, care for and enhance the connection of people to Walloon Lake and its watershed, now and forever. The WLAC is an oddity in the conservation community in that it is a hybrid of a lake association and land trust. We view our uniqueness as a strength. We are a non-profit (501C3), membership-based organization. We have a board of 14 Trustees, teammates that include 5 full-timers and 1 part-timer with the addition of 1-2 interns every summer. Through 12 Committees we are able to tackle lake and land issues; from boater safety, government relations, aquatic invasive species control to land conservation, preserve stewardship and public education. Additionally, the WLAC is pursuing Land Trust Alliance Accreditation in 2021. This extra-ordinary Association/Conservancy combination provides for a unique opportunity to protect the lake and land in one of the most beloved scenic areas in the country.
