Lake Stewards understand their own water use, catchment, conservation, water quality, and other important water related areas. They look for ways to practice lake friendly living through advanced gardening and land management practices. These practices include and go beyond those at the Pledge level. They may be larger projects that require more expertise and resources. Lake Stewards engage in these meaningful individual actions and also collective actions that benefit people and nature.

We encourage you to download our Lake Friendly Living Guide. The guide provides you with simple steps and
additional advanced projects to practice lake friendly living. You may want to download and print the pledge
card too. You can post the pledge card in your home so that other household members can review and
participate. Thank you for your pledge!
