Annual Gala

Thank you for everyone who attended our 2nd annual gala Friday, July 8, 2011 at the Heidel House Resort & Spa. Guests spent the evening socializing, dining, dancing and fundraising to assist in our efforts of promoting the conservation of Big Green Lake and its watershed. It won't be long before we'll be planning our next gala event for summer 2012. Stay tuned for next year's event! Learn more about our sizzling evening of Hot Havana Nights on the shores of Green Lake or view photos from the evening. GLA annual fundraiser for 2012 is scheduled for Friday, July 6 at the Heidel House Resort & Spa in Green Lake.

GLA's Youth Fishing Clinic

In collaboration with the Walleyes for Tomorrow-Green Lake Chapter, we hope to alternate a winter and summer youth fishing clinic. We currently are planning a summer 2012 youth fishing clinic. Be sure to check back often or sign-up for our e-blasts, to receive periodic emails with news, event updates, and photos.

Whether we're ice fishing in the winter on Big Green Lake or spending a summer morning at Playground Park, children between the ages of 4 and 16 learn the basic knowledge needed to begin fishing and the importance of clean water for good fishing. Mini lectures, demonstrations, and activities take place in a station format to maximize learning experiences. Local anglers share their knowledge and wisdom about topics such as water safety, fishing regulations and ethics, fish identification, tackle assembly and bait types, knot tying, casting hooking and landing the catch.

Green Team Outings

In 2008, The Green Lake Association, the Green Lake Conservancy, the Green Lake Sanitary District, and the Green Lake School District partnered to form the Green Team.  The Green Team's purpose is to introduce and share with the public, through the talents of volunteers, those special, unusual or unknown natural features in the Green Lake area.  These free, family-oriented events occur periodically through the year. Visit our calendar of events and homepage often for updates! View our calendar of events for 2012 outings. Print a copy of the 2012 Green Team calendar. Green Team events are supported by the Green Lake County/Ripon Community Foundation's Herman Schultz Grant.
