Dear LSLA Members, You did it! You proved, once again, that Little Sebago Lake and its association, are a priority investment for you and your family. Despite the challenges of 2020, and LSLA preparing for a dip in donations, you came through. The results from the LSLA Spring/Summer appeal actually exceeded donations of 2019. It was a year where we all found a new normal. Virtual board meetings and an online raffle fundraiser were challenges met and conquered. The attendance at the LSLA Annual Zoom Meeting was impressive with over 100 members joining in and actively participating in online polls, voting and chats. Although we missed seeing everyone in person, the resulting energy and feedback demonstrated the interest our members have in ongoing work of LSLA. Each year, LSLA allocates tens of thousands of dollars from membership donations to programs that monitor and protect Little Sebago Lake. By now, you have undoubtedly been reading reports from program coordinators about many of those programs designed to provide all lake property owners with the peace of mind that - we’ve got you covered. Water quality and safety, wildlife protection, and dam monitoring and maintenance are just a few of the accomplishments we achieved in 2020 with the same level of concern and importance you would and should expect. The LSLA Marketing and Communication team works to keep members in the loop. We are blessed to have some of the most passionate and committed LSLA members supporting our efforts, and hope to engage those who have yet to join us. We know that you are depending on us to manage the programs that you generously support. We appreciate your faith in us, and will continue to carefully manage every donor dollar, prioritizing the health, safety and longevity of Little Sebago Lake. As always, thank you for your generous donor response in support of Little Sebago Lake Association. We couldn’t do it without you.
