PLPA Events Calendar 2024
The PLPA sponsors and organizes many events for lake residents – from lake improvement projects like container drives and buoy repair and placement, to social events like fireworks, Caroga Arts Music Festival, and the Summerfest.
We’re constantly updating and adding new events, so please check back from time to time. If you have an event you’d like to add, let us know by emailing us at [email protected]
Lake Improvement Events
Lake Improvement events like the container drives, lake structure improvement, and buoy maintenance are opportunities to work with other community members while making life safer and more enjoyable at the the lake. These events rely totally on volunteers, so please consider volunteering.
To volunteer, you can use the contact email address in the event description or [email protected]
Social Events
The PLPA, and often in concert (literally) with the Peck Family, hosts / sponsors a number of social events throughout the year. The following are the dates (some tentative) for the 2024 Schedule of Events. Special thanks to the Peck Family for making the Marina and Picnic area available to us!
