Georgia Lakes Society (GLS) is a non-profit organization promoting the understanding, enjoyment and protection of lakes, reservoirs and their watersheds. Membership in GLS is open to anyone with interest in lakes, and includes both professionals and interested citizens. Lake Management is key to protecting Georgia's lakes. The Alliance of Lake Homeowners is an organization within GLS, addressing issues specifically for those living around private lakes. GLS helps citizens learn to monitor their lakes using the Adopt A Lake program. GLS partners with GA Adopt A Stream Program which works with streams, rivers, wetlands, estuaries and lakes to bring the lake monitoring to citizens. The objectives of the Society are to: * Provide a forum for sharing of information and experiences on scientific, administrative, legal, and financial aspects of lake, wetland, and watershed management. * Foster the development of local lake and wetland restoration and protection programs in accordance with appropriate management strategies and techniques. * Encourage the development of local, state, and national programs, policies and legislation promoting lake, wetland, and watershed management. * Encourage the cooperation and interaction of organizations, agencies, units of government, and individuals concerned with lake, wetland, and watershed improvement and protection.
