MN COLA is a volunteer organization with the mission of preserving, protecting and improving the waters and shorelands of the State of Minnesota through advocacy, education, and sharing of best practices.
We welcome new members as individuals; lake or river associations; coalitions, alliances, or associations of multiple lake, river, or property owner associations; watershed and lake improvement districts.
We stand ready to assist groups in any part of Minnesota who wish to form an association.
Our members are encouraged to bring issues to the attention of MN COLA for assistance and advocacy
Our goal is to have all lake associations in the state join MN COLA so that common interests and concerns can be more efficiently addressed. Please encourage your lake, river or watershed association to join MN COLA! Get on our mailing list by contacting us at minnesotacola@gmail.com
