GREAT NEWS (March 10, 2022)  THE LAKE SCUGOG ENHANCEMENT (LSEP) PROJECT TOOK ONE MORE BIG STEP FORWARD with the announcement that the Township will be devoting $1.5M received from the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation to give a big push on fundraising for LSEP. For all about this essential project to attack this most needy area of lake health, see: https://scugoglakestewards.com/lake-scugog-enhancement…/ LSEP continues to be progressed through the permitting process, which has become very time consuming due to the project’s scope and number of regulatory agencies needed to be involved. Once permits are in place and engineering and costs estimates finalized, the Community Fundraising Campaign will kick-off, with a fall construction hoped for if all goes well. #twpofscugog #scugoglakestewards #kawarthaconservation

Our mission is to preserve, protect and enhance Lake Scugog.  Like other lakes, our Lake Scugog faces the challenges of invasive species, sedimentation, water quality and lake level issues.  It is our job to work with partners to ensure the lake remains healthy and attractive for future generations.

    Research

    If we are to know what to do for the lake, we first must understand it.  We are fortunate to have excellent support and partners to do this. Enjoy the information on this site and our Youtube Videos.

  • Lake Scugog Enhancement Project

    Enhancement Project

    Over the years, work will be carried out to help our lake. The first improvement must start where the need is greatest for the whole lake, Port Perry Bay, through the Lake Scugog Enhancement Project.
