Our Work
Together with our 4,500 members, we strive to preserve Lake Lanier's water quality and quantity for everyone who relies on the lake and its watershed to enhance their quality of life.
We work to meet this goal by focusing our programs on these key priority areas.
Ready to Jump In?
Since 1966, we have been working to protect Lake Lanier and its surroundings. We are the voice of citizens around the lake and across the region, striving to represent all aspects and users of the lake including wildlife, fish, homeowners and recreational users. With your help we can continue to preserve and protect this important natural resource.
60th Anniversary Gala
Please join us for LLA’s first-ever gala on Thursday, November 12th, at Lanier Islands Resort. The evening will bring together community leaders and friends of Lake Lanier for dinner, drinks, entertainment, and fundraising in celebration of our shared commitment to the lake.
Purchasing a ticket is more than a fun night out—it’s an investment in the future of Lake Lanier. Sponsorship opportunities are also available for those who would like to make an even greater investment in LLA’s mission and future.

Power boats, kayaks, jet skis… OH MY! Boats of ALL sizes play a crucial role in the success of Shore Sweep! 🛶
A large majority of trash found in the lake is not accessible by foot and therefore, we need as many boaters as possible out there on the lake this year! With Shore Sweep less than a week away, please consider signing up to volunteer if you own a vessel.
Boaters may start picking up trash before checking in with their site captain on the day of the event. Trash can be dropped off at the 15 sites between 8:00 AM - 1:00 PM. For more information regarding Shore Sweep including the site map, please visit lakelanier.org/shore-sweep/ 👈 ...

Many hands make light work! 💪🏼 🚚
Shore Sweep prep is in full swing! Our LLA team has been busy sorting, counting, organizing, and getting all the supplies ready for the 38th annual Shore Sweep and the thousands of volunteers who will join us on September 19th.
There’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes to make Shore Sweep happen, and we’re getting closer by the day! 🧤 🗑️
Special thanks to Home Depot and Lowes stores in Cumming and Gainesville for donating trash bags and tarps for this year’s cleanup!
Haven’t signed up yet? There’s still time to join us and help make a difference for Lake Lanier! 💙
