Thank you for the outpouring of support at our recent Summer Celebration! A special thanks to our board members, Scott Finlay and Jane Eberle for their leadership and contagious passion for our mission to conserve the lakes and lands of the Belgrade Lakes watershed for all. Congratulations to Peter Kallin, who was presented with the Eddie Mayer Award for his invaluable contributions to conservation in the Belgrade Lakes region. Fellow 7 Lakes board member, Lynn Matson presented Pete with a stunning original painting by Lynn that depicted Pete landing a rainbow trout on Long Pond.
​As announced at the Summer Celebration, our Land for the Lakes Summer Appeal is underway to fund a $1,000,000 revolving land fund. This fund will allow 7 Lakes to make strategic purchases of land for conservation throughout the Belgrade Lakes region. We are also hopeful that conservation-minded friends and neighbors will consider donating land or conservation easements. Conserved land is the most effective and cost-efficient means to keep our lakes healthy. Stay tuned for an exciting announcement on a matching challenge!
