The Forest Lake Association is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
What We Do
- Provide water quality testing and support statewide data collection through the Volunteer Lakes Monitoring Program.
- Coordinate a volunteer plant patrol group that conducts a yearly lake-wide survey of plant growth and invasive species inspections.
- Monitor the lake’s only dam, providing repairs as needed.
- Serve as community advocates for the benefit of lake residents and for the preservation of water quality.
- Host periodic social events and activities to foster a greater awareness of the watershed community.
- Raise money to use as matching grant funds and to support other Association efforts.
- Deliver newsletters and other information (by email or website) of value to lake residents.
- Conduct an annual meeting with informational workshops.
Support these goals with a household membership to the Forest Lake Association for only $25 annually.
- Association membership is open to any person or family with an interest in the lake. You do not need to be a property owner to join the Forest Lake Association.
- Each household is considered one membership.
- We have no paid staff. We are governed by an elected board of 9 Trustees and up to 5 Alternate Trustees who meet between annual general membership meetings.
- Four Association officers are elected at the general meeting: president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer.
- We are incorporated in the state of Maine as a Not For Profit entity.
