Three Lakes Association Works for Everyone!

 

Three Lakes Association serves the Chain of Lakes Watershed in Antrim County, Michigan.

Water Quality
We have monitored water quality since 1966.We have constructed a predictive water quality model for the protection of our lakes and watershed. We identify potential pollution sites, and work with homeowners and local officials to solve problems.

Education
We publish an informative quarterly newsletter. We collaborate with Grass River Natural Area, Torch Conservation Center and Torch Lake Protection Alliance to produce educational programs for the community on water quality, water safety, invasive species, lakeshore management, and other environmental concerns.
We mentor local high school students in our summer internship program.
