Welcome

Save The Lakes was founded as the only statewide organization dedicated to the preservation and protection of Rhode Island’s lakes, ponds, and freshwater resources.  We provide a forum for education, discussion, and action on lake-related issues; we advocate for improved freshwater management policies at the local, state, and federal levels. 

Education

We’ve assembled a wide range of informational resources, including lake management plans, aquatic invasive species information, and more.
