Financial Report

Dear Members and Friends,

It was a good year for the Association. Our Unrestricted Net Assets increased by over $90,000. Our audit, prepared in accordance with GAAP principles on an accrual basis for Non-Profit Organizations, is a consolidation of several classes of assets, liabilities, income, and expense. For a more complete understanding of the numbers, we look at them based upon basic operations (which includes releases from restricted grants in prior years), new grants, and investment performance.

Your active membership in the Lake George Association places you among the thousands of individuals and families who have made it their commitment to protect Lake George. We are taking our turn among the generations of champions of Lake George’s protection and conservation.

The Lake George Association and its dedicated and passionate members have been protecting the Lake’s exceptional water quality for over 128 years. And now, with our excellent working relationships with partner agencies, municipalities and nonprofits, we continue our valuable work.

Each generation has had its challenges: stopping trash and ashes from being dumped into the Lake back in the 1800s, monitoring septic systems in the early 1900s, helping to secure control of the water level for the public good in the 1940s, inhibiting the discharge of holding tanks from boats in the 1970s, helping to create and later enhance the powers of the Lake George Park Commission, and raising awareness of land-use practices, development, stormwater, and invasive species.

Our generation is meeting the challenges we face with new invasive species, intensified weather patterns causing increasingly heavy stream flow, and educating current lake users and future generations about water quality impacts.

Because of our generous member donations we are able to act quickly and with great agility to get projects under contract and up and running while we wait for reimbursement from state and local funds. We are truly working together with partners at many levels to accomplish projects that no one organization could muster alone - and are stretching your membership dollars to maximize protection for the Lake.

There are big challenges ahead, but we are prepared. We learn from past generations to protect future generations. Our practical, steadfast approach to the long term protection of the Lake is working. Please continue to renew your membership and stick with us.

For the next generation...

On a strictly accrual operating basis, we had a loss of approximately $102,000.

However, $52,000 of expenses were non-cash charges and $67,000 in reimbursements from our Asian Clam and Storm Water projects from our partners were not received until early 2013. So, overall, we covered all our cash operational needs by a slight margin.

Our joint loan with The Fund for Lake George on the West Brook Conservation Initiative was reduced by $150,170 to $431,312. Since year end, it has been reduced further to just over $316,000.

On restricted grants that are released over a number of years, principally from the Froehlich Foundation, we received $384,000.

Investment performance for 2012 in Unrestricted Funds was up 11.6%, slightly higher than our blended investment policy benchmarks.

Many thanks to you all for your continued support.

LGA 2013 Annual Report - 3

Lake Saving Projects: big and small - they all add up to protect the Lake!

Each year the LGA works to identify priority projects, secure funding, and then implement those previously identified projects to address various stormwater runoff issues throughout the watershed. Some of these projects are large and well-known - such as West Brook - but many are smaller, and not nearly as glamorous. Often once they are completed, you can’t even tell that they are there since they involve underground structures that capture or infiltrate stormwater. But even though these projects may not be visible- they are all extremely important! Each one adds up as more and more stormwater is kept from running into the Lake, and together they are able to make a big difference in the protection of Lake George.

West Brook Conservation Initiative Last fall, the West Brook Conservation Initiative received over 18,000 plugs, plants, trees and shrubs. The site then received about 6 to 8 inches of topsoil and was seeded and mulched. The site looked great this spring (see photos to left)and many of the native plants around the ponds bloomed this summer. The next phase of construction of the walkways and paths is scheduled for this fall. Once the paths are completed, the stormwater will be turned on and the site will be a fully functioning stormwater treatment area.

Fall 2012

This photo of stormwater running down a driveway in Putnam used to occur during any storm event. After receiving a grant from the LCBP and the Helen V. Froelich Foundation, the LGA was able to remediate this stormwater issue. With input and oversight from the LGA, the project was designed by WCSWCD and constructed by the Town of Putnam Highway department. It utilizes dry wells and underground storage chambers to capture and infiltrate runoff. Once installed and covered, you can’t see these structures any longer, but they are there, hidden away underground doing their job. Overflow then runs into a vegetated swale to be infiltrated into the ground or flows into a nearby stream.

West Brook Streambank Stabilization

The above photos show the before, during and after views of a project on a section of streambank that was severely eroding during tropical storm Irene. Utilizing funding secured by the LGA from the Lake Champlain Basin Program (LCBP) and the Helen V. Froehlich foundation, the streambank was restored with very large boulders, coir logs and vegetation. The stream itself was restored to its original width and some of the sinuosity of the stream was restored as well.

Shrubs were planted through the DEC’s Trees for Tribs program. The project was designed by Warren County Soil and Water Conservation District (WCSWCD) and Morrissey Construction completed the work. The LGA assisted with the design and served as project oversight during construction.

Sediment Basins

In a joint project between the Lake George Association, the WCSWCD, the town of Hague and the town of Bolton, over 1300 cubic yards of material were removed from seven sediment basins - one of which is a sediment pond on Hague Brook. (photo at near right). This is roughly the equivalent of 110 dump truck loads of material! In addition to cleaning out the basins, the inlet to the Hague Brook sediment basin (shown in photo far right) was repaired to once again split the stream with half going to the sediment basin and the other half remaining in the original stream channel.

Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS): Education, Spread Prevention, and Management The LGA works to protect Lake George from AIS year round. In the winter months, much planning and research goes into preparing for the Lake Steward Program, Asian Clam management activities, and other AIS work for the summer months.

Lake Steward Program The LGA’s award-winning Lake Steward Program seeks to protect the Lake from the introduction and spread of invasive species that could negatively alter the Lake’s ecosystem, shoreline property values, and the region’s tourism-driven economy. From 2008-2012, the LGA’s lake stewards inspected almost 25,000 boats at high traffic launches around the Lake, . removed over 400 AIS samples from boats, and educated around 60,000 boaters about invasive species spread prevention.

In 2012, lake stewards were stationed at five high traffic boat launches and inspected 6,972 boats. Within two weeks of their launch in Lake George, boaters had visited 155 unique waterbodies located in 13 different states throughout the United States and 2 Provinces in Canada.

At left: Lake stewards show off a sample of Eurasian watermilfoil removed from a boat prior to launching at Mossy Point. From all five launches in 2012, lake stewards removed 272 aquatic organism samples from 189 boats and trailers launching and retrieving, and identified 131 samples to be an invasive species. Six different invasive species were identified: Eurasian watermilfoil, curly-leaf pondweed, water chestnut, zebra mussels, quagga mussels, and spiny water flea.

Asian Clam Management

Asian clam management activites continued throughout 2012. As of the end of 2012 there were 27+ acres of Asian clam infestation known in Lake George in 8 different locations throughout the Lake. The four new small sites found during the fall lakewide survey were prioritized for ‘site specific eradication’ while larger, previously treated sites were treated with a ‘containment’ approach for fall treatment efforts.

The fall treatment effort included the installation of 6+ acres of benthic barriers weighted down with rebar and sand bags. Mats were installed in 7 of 8 known locations with no fall treatment at the Norowal Marina site. Fall treatment efforts cost over $400,000. These mats were left in place over the winter and removed in the spring of 2013. As a member of the Lake George Asian Clam Task Force, the LGA continues to play a leading role in the fight to protect Lake George from this invasive species.

Education: From the Classroom to the Lake The LGA’s education staff is involved in a wide variety of education programs year-round, from field trips to in-school programs and working with special clubs and groups.

Above: The Lake Rangers, an after-school club at Lake George Elementary, participate in an activity to see that everyone contributes to the pollution in a Lake and that actions can be taken to reduce that pollution. An additional 10 sessions of Lake Rangers were taught by LGA staff throughout the school year filled with activities about many water quality issues in the Lake George watershed.

Above: Students from Putnam Central School show off the fish they designed during their Fishin’ for Additions Program. This program was one that was available for teachers to choose from in the LGA’s In-School Programming Guide which provides an opportunity for area teachers to collaborate with LGA educators, and incorporate Lake George water quality education into their established curriculum. LGA Educators traveled around the watershed and brought a turtle program to Adirondack Enrichment, Salmon in the Classroom to Ticonderoga and Whitehall, and watershed education to Lake George Kindergarten.

At Right: Students identify and sort macroinvertebrates that they had caught during a stream monitoring field trip. A total of 1,087 students participated in stream monitoring programs with us at the Lake George Recreation Center, Queensbury Central School, Lake George Elementary School, and at a Girl Scout Camporee at Camp Woodhaven.

Floating Classroom The Floating Classroom is an aquatic adventure for students and adults interested in learning about the Lake George watershed and the exceptional quality of the Lake’s water. Participants investigate different aspects of the Lake’s ecosystem and learn how to protect and preserve this living water body.

In 2012, there were 1,886 participants, including 1,355 students from 18 school districts that took part in the Floating Classroom.

Lake-Friendly Living: Stopping stormwater one garden at a time Rain Garden Demonstration Projects

Rain gardens are landscaped depressions that are designed to capture and filter stormwater from roofs, driveways, and other hard surfaces. They can be a great addition to your property to help protect Lake George.

In the fall of 2012 we worked with the Lake Champlain-Lake George Regional Planning Board and the Silver Bay YMCA to install a native plant rain garden on the Silver Bay YMCA campus to address stormwater runoff on site. In addition to helping to design and install the garden, we created interpretive educational signage for the garden as well.

In the spring of 2013 we installed another native plant demonstration rain garden at the north end of the Lake at the Ticonderoga Public Beach with volunteers from Keller Williams Realty.
