Your Membership will make a difference!

Membership dues of $20, along with any donations, support our beautiful lakes that provide us with extraordinary beauty and a special closeness to nature. Vigilance in maintaining its delicate balance is the responsibility of everyone who enjoys activities on our lakes. Being a paid member of the non-profit Lamoka Waneta Lakes’ Association (LWLA) demonstrates your support of the voluntary effort by the LWLA officers and board, made up of representatives from both lakes, who through various activities oversees the health of the lakes. This is very important and gives the LWLA leverage when addressing concerns to the DEC, NYSEG and other various government agencies.

Your tax-deductible membership dues and donations may be paid by credit card online or by sending in a completed membership application with check or cash. The credit cards we accept are Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club, and JCB.

In addition, below will give you some insight into the various activities your voluntary LWLA board performs throughout the year:

Through a partnership with the Department of Environmental Conservation, Schuyler and Steuben Counties various water quality management agencies, the towns of Bradford, Tyrone and Wayne, and the New York State Federation of Lake Associations the LWLA gathers information and shares it with the property owners around the lakes.

Monthly water testing monitors various components of the lakes and that information is shared with the NYS Department of Health, the DEC and the New York State Federation of Lakes Associations to create a map of what’s happening in the lakes throughout the state.

Careful monitoring of the lake level helps in maintaining a healthy water level that is subject to rapid change due to cloud bursts, major downpours or in extremely hot weather, preserving precious water for recreational use.

The LWLA monitors invasive species outbreaks and chemically treats the lake on a yearly basis working in partnership with the Lakes District Commission to keep harmful weeds from overtaking our lakes.

Fish studies are done on a regular basis to monitor the health of the wildlife living in the waters.

Controlled hunting of geese is used to maintain a healthy balance in the lakes environment.

The LWLA promotes and supports various activities throughout the summer season to create opportunities for property owners to gather together. Those activities may include: two public meetings for the dissemination and gathering of information, promoting flare nights, organizing the July 4th boat parade, sponsoring the annual golf tournament and pancake breakfast and creating common times for the annual rummage sales and Pontoon Palooza, etc.

Promotion of wearing Lamoka/Waneta apparel to create a sense of pride and caring for our lakes. This apparel is made available by the LWLA Board Clothing Committee that purchase this apparel to make it available for purchase.

Open LWLA Board meetings seven times yearly where you can voice your concerns and support.
