On August 14th, join us for Love Walloon, our 2025 Summer Gala and Fundraiser – a celebration that will not only honor our pristine lake and watershed but also unite us in a shared commitment to preserving this cherished treasure for generations to come. Step into an enchanting night celebrating Walloon and the spirit of community. The evening will be set against the breathtaking backdrop of Lavender Hill Farm, with twinkling lights and the fragrant scent of lavender filling the air. Immerse yourself in live jazz music by Djangophonic, dancing, and heartfelt conversation, while enjoying local food and drinks by Wineguys. This will be a testament to the beauty of Walloon and the collective passion that drives the work of WLAC. Whether you are a long-time WLAC supporter or joining us for the first time, Love Walloon is an experience designed for everyone who shares a deep love for our lake and its future. This will be a night to remember – filled with inspiration, connection, and a sense of purpose as we come together to support our mission.
