At the present time we have focused mainly on Lake Istokpoga because it is the most popular lake in Highlands
county for all types of lake users, and also is Florida's 5th largest lake.

We determined that Istokpoga would make an excellent organization "focus model" by which we could form a platform
to grow, mature and operate as a Florida non-for-profit organization which serves individual lake communities.

Currently within our membership, few have the time to devote to collecting information from online government lake
management websites and attend lake management County meetings, both which provide the public with current
facts, information, and data.

From the point of acquiring necessary information, a personal pro-active relationship needs to be created and
maintained by
SOS Lake-Community Committees, formed based on each individual lake's user issues and concerns,
and existing management programs already in progress.

Many lake communities in several counties have expressed the desire to become involved with SOS Florida Lakes.
Polk, Okeechobee, Glades, and Lake County all have concerned citizens ready to become involved in an organization
which has a record of success; working to get issues addressed, problems solved, and cultivate pro-active
responsible congenial government / citizen relationships

State Counties, Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Department of Environmental Protection, Water
Management Divisions, US Army Corp of Engineers, and US Fish and Game, provide extensive public education
about their lake management plans and subsequent results.

Most lakes are monitored in part or whole by these organization. Acquiring this information takes time and effort which
most people don't have. However, if you have time to devote to your favorite lake and would like to provide us with
information regarding that lake, please contact us so that we might include your work here for our membership and
the public to benefit from.

Please use the links on the left side navigation bar to access information regarding specific lakes.

As other lake information becomes available we will create web pages for that particular lake, it all
depends on the time you have to contribute for "our" benefit.
We need your support, so please donate today. If
membership fees and donations don't come in
before the New Year, we will dissolve the
organization for lack of funds and interest.
