The Skaneateles Lake Association is focused on some of the greatest threats to the quality of our lake — invasive species prevention, harmful algal bloom research and monitoring, milfoil control and hemlock protection.

Established, supported and led by a volunteer force of community members, we have been protecting the lake for over fifty years. Your support is important to help us continue the valuable and necessary work we have started.
