Squam Lakes Association

The Squam Lakes Association (Federal ID 02-0256498) is a non-profit organization issued exemption under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

The Squam Lakes Association is dedicated to conserving for public benefit the natural beauty, peaceful character and resources of the watershed. In collaboration with local and state partners the SLA promotes the protection, careful use and shared enjoyment of the lakes, mountains, forests, open spaces and wildlife of the Squam Lakes region.

This mission guides our work in conservation (ex: water quality & invasive species management), education (ex: youth camps & Adventure Ecology programs for all ages), and trails and access (ex: we maintain low-impact campsites & 50+ miles of trails). 

We'd love to have you join us for our volunteer days and adventure ecology programs!
