Protecting the Land that Protects the Lake since 1988

The LGLC is excited to announce that Manning and Ginny Rowan Smith have generously offered a matching challenge to build our legacy program, the Land and Water Society. Legacy giving, also called planned giving, is a commitment made by an individual through their will or other estate planning designation.

For each new legacy pledge received by the LGLC, the Smiths will donate $5,000 to the LGLC, up to a total of $324,000!

Through this Challenge, your legacy gift will make a positive impact on Lake George that will last beyond your lifetime AND your pledge will allow us to do more, today, to permanently protect land and the water quality of Lake George.

The LGLC's 2023 Annual Report has been released. Printed copies are on their way to mailboxes, and it is also available for online viewing at LGLC.org/news.

The report is best viewed on a tablet or larger screen and can be downloaded as a PDF.

The Land & Water Conservation Celebration is the LGLC's largest and most impactful event of the year. This year we'll be at the beautiful Silver Bay YMCA campus, on August 2.

You are invited to be a conservation leader by joining this year's Honorary Committee.

The LGLC was recently featured by the Adirondack Explorer in a piece that examined how land conservation protects water quality.

The article is an in-depth Q&A with Executive Director Mike Horn about our work and the recent $4.15 million we received for land acquisition.

Be sure to visit LGLC.org/Calendar, and follow us on Facebook and Instagram to get updates and posts about events as more are added.
