The rooftop of the Edgewater Hotel was converted to a celebratory atmosphere on June 3, when the Clean Lakes Alliance hosted a Sunset Party to celebrate the beginning of the lake season. The event brought together lakeside residents, community stakeholders and others who place priority on improving the conditions of the lakes and waterways in Dane County.
At the event, the Dane County Lakes and Watershed Commission – which partners with the Clean Lakes Alliance – announced the recipients of the Dane County Water Champion Awards. These annual awards recognize individuals, businesses and organizations whose efforts have made a positive difference in protecting and improving the water quality of area lakes.
Through the Clean Lakes Festival, the Clean Lakes Alliance is has raised nearly $100,000 in the past three years to assist the efforts of the Lakes and Watershed Commission.
