The Oneida Lake Association (OLA) was founded in 1945 to protect, restore and preserve the natural resources of Oneida Lake and its surrounding ecosystem. 

The OLA has evolved from what was once perceived as a fishing association to what has today become a powerful environmental partnership group. 

The OLA represents its 3,000+ members in legislative and environmental issues which impact Oneida Lake, including:

Great Blue Heron - Oneida Lake

• Increasing Public Awareness of Oneida Lake, the Recreational and Ecological Benefits it has to
• offer, and the Issues which potentially impact the Lake and its Habitat
• Working with Elected Officials and other Non-Profit Agencies for the Protection of Oneida Lake's
• Wetlands and Wildlife
• Enforcement of Environmental and Safety Laws
• Support of Conservation Legislation
• Maintaining adequate Water Levels for Oneida Lake
• Support of the Oneida Lake Fish Cultural Station
• Improvement of the Lake's Public Access Sites
• Monitoring Water Quality and "Problem Species" in Oneida Lake
• Elimination of Point and Non-Point Pollution in Oneida Lake

The Oneida Lake Association achieves its political strength from its highly valued Membership, without whom most of its efforts would be severely diminished. Have a look at the benefits of membership in the OLA, and what it has to offer you. After all, it's your lake--why not help to preserve it?

A book of Oneida Lake photographs has been self-published by a Rochester man with Canastota roots. The book, titled "The View From Messenger Bay", focuses primarily on the southeast corner of the lake. Click here for more info.
