Congratulations to a Meredith property owner on achieving their LakeSmart designation!

Lake-friendly living is about making thoughtful choices that help protect the lake year-round. With the help of Stephens Landscaping Professionals, this property has undergone an incredible transformation, incorporating native plantings, stormwater management practices, and an up-to-date septic system. These efforts help filter runoff, protect water quality, and maintain the natural beauty of Lake Winnipesaukee.

Investing in your property also means investing in the future of our lake.

Thank you to the property owner for making lake protection a priority, Stephens Landscaping Professionalstephens Landscaping Professionals for their work, and NH LAKES for our continued partnership in the LakeSmart program!

Our public presentation series continues in Wolfeboro!

Thank you to everyone who joined the Lake Winnipesaukee Alliance in Moultonborough. We’re looking forward to continuing the conversation on October 22 at 4:30 PM at Wolfeboro Town Hall’s Great Room.

LWA and our research partners have brought together decades of data to better understand water quality and watershed health, including the major stressors contributing to cyanobacterial blooms like those seen in 2024.

We’ll explore what data-driven projections tell us about the lake’s future if current trends continue, and how LWA is using this science to help curb present declines and protect Lake Winnipesaukee for generations to come.

Safeguarding the lake will take all of us, property owners, businesses, visitors, municipal leaders, and the broader community. We hope you’ll join us for this important conversation.

After several years of planning, partnership, and construction, LWA was excited to celebrate the completion of a major stormwater improvement project at Resort on the Bay in Laconia. Since 2018, owner Rich Tilton and his family have worked extremely hard to move this project forward and improve how stormwater is managed at the property. The improvements are designed to reduce stormwater runoff, sediment, pollutants, and nutrients reaching Langley Cove and Paugus Bay through a grass-lined treatment swale, stormwater basin, and native plantings, while converting a portion of the existing sand beach to a vegetated area.

For the Tilton family, this work reflects a long-term commitment to being good stewards of Paugus Bay. Their family has cared for this property for more than 70 years, and Rich and his family have continued to invest in improvements that protect the lake for future generations. LWA is incredibly grateful to the Tiltons, the City of Laconia, and the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services for helping make this project possible. This is a great example of putting lake protection into practice and working together to reduce impacts to Paugus Bay.

From the Field!

What’s happening beneath the surface of Lake Winnipesaukee?

In this episode, we’re out on the lake collecting temperature, specific conductance, and dissolved oxygen profiles using a YSI water quality meter. By taking measurements every half meter from the surface to the bottom, we can see how conditions change with depth and track important seasonal patterns like lake stratification.

These profiles give us valuable insight into lake health and help us better understand how conditions are changing throughout the year.

Come along with us from the field to see how we monitor what’s happening below the surface!

Meet Kendall!

Kendall joined the Lake Winnipesaukee Alliance team this summer as a Seasonal Water Quality & Creel Survey Clerk. In this role, she assists with our water quality monitoring and creel survey programs, gaining hands-on field experience while bringing her passion for marine science, environmental stewardship, and the outdoors to our team.

Kendall graduated from the University of New England in 2024 with a degree in Marine Science and a minor in Marine Affairs. She grew up spending time on and around Newfound Lake, where she enjoyed everything from hiking and boating to skiing.

Her passion for environmental stewardship grew from a desire to give back to the places that have given so much to her and to the communities of people who enjoy them. Kendall is excited to expand her field experience, learn more about the ecology of Lake Winnipesaukee, and explore the Lakes Region through her work with LWA.

We’re excited to have Kendall on the team!

After several years of planning, partnership, and construction, LWA is excited to celebrate the completion of a major stormwater improvement project with Resort on the Bay in Laconia. The project was designed to reduce stormwater runoff, sediment, pollutants, and nutrients reaching Langley Cove and Paugus Bay. Improvements include minimizing the beach area, a grass-lined treatment swale, and native plantings, all designed to capture and treat runoff before it enters the Cove.

Come see the improvements for yourself! 🎉 Join us for a public open house on Thursday, September 24th from 3:00 - 4:00 pm at Resort on the Bay. Stop by to tour the project, learn how the improvements work, and see how LWA and local leaders are partnering together to help protect the Bay.
