The Chautauqua Lake Association has Watercraft Stewards working all public launches from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

This year, we are celebrating our 10th season of Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) Spread Prevention Services to Chautauqua Lake, plus Cassadaga Lake and two Lake Erie Launches. 

In that time, 86,623 boats have been encountered by our stewards and 163,084 people educated.
