Friends of Lake Quannapowitt is happy to once again participate at the Festival by the Lake, an annual event hosted by the Wakefield Center Neighborhood Association (WCNA). Come for the many crafters, artists, local organizations, live music, and great food. Visit with the many local nonprofit organizations, including FOLQ, to learn about community services and opportunities to get involved.

FOLQ will share information about the Lake, including updates on construction around the lake, native and invasive plant work being done along the shores, water quality updates, and more.

⭐⭐⭐ NEW THIS YEAR: FOLQ will have Interactive Watershed Demonstrations running from 10:00am to 12:00pm. This is a fun, interactive way for kids and people of all ages to learn how watersheds work, and how water and pollutants travel from miles away to wind up in Lake Quannapowitt. Stop by the Friends of Lake Quannapowitt booth for a hands-on look at our watershed! Visitors will be environmental scientists using our 3D watershed model to see exactly how rain and daily habits impact the health of our local lake. Come learn how we can all work together to keep our water clean. Anyone who stops by can enter a giveaway to win some great prizes! 

We hope to see you on the Lower Common for this community event!
