The Contoocook Lake Area Preservation Association (CLAPA)
Preserving the natural beauty and surrounding area of Contoocook Lake and its watershed.
About US
The Contoocook Lake Area Preservation Association (CLAPA) was formed in August 1969 as a non-profit 501c3 organization. We are an all-volunteer membership group, open to all who have a common goal to protect the environment and well-being of Contoocook Lake.
Membership
We are working hard to increase membership—for everyone who enjoys it today and in the future. Benefits include:
Help directly fund invasive weed control and lake protection
Stay informed about lake conditions and projects
Support a healthier lake for recreation and wildlife
Join a group of neighbors who care about preserving this special place
Protecting the lake now is far easier—and more affordable—than restoring it later.
