LSLA – 100 Years of Lake Stewardship

Here’s a trivia ques tion- what event took place on Little Se bago on September 6, 1924? If you an swered that was the date of the first Little Sebago Lake Association meeting, you would be correct! As I stated in the summer newsletter, the Little Sebago Lake Association will celebrate its 100 th birthday in 2024. Many things have changed since that first LSLA meeting in 1924 and I think those that came before us would be impressed with what the LSLA has become- it’s almost like a small business. We own and are responsible for the recently refurbished Hopkins Dam and deal with issues such as water quality, lake use safety and invasives such as milfoil, to name a few. Calling all classic boats of Little Sebago Lake! If you own a special motorized watercraft, we would love to see it! As part of the LSLA’s centennial activities, we are planning a classic boat parade during the summer of 2024. Date: Saturday, August 10, 2024 Time: 2 P.M. Boats will gather north of the sandy narrows and parade around the middle lake, led by LSLA’s safety patrol boat. There will be amphicars participating in the parade as well!

None of this would be possible without the support of our membership. We are thinking of ways to say thank you by planning fun activities for all to enjoy for the summer of 2024 Some activities being planned are a scavenger hunt, a “classic” boat parade and a golf outing. There are other activities being planned as well and the Centennial Committee will be working over the winter on all the details. Have a great winter and look for further info on our website and spring newsletter!
