Spend your summer on the shores of Newfound Lake helping protect one of New Hampshire’s most treasured natural resources. Lake Hosts welcome boaters at local boat launches, conduct voluntary boat and trailer inspections, and share simple steps visitors can take to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species using the “Clean, Drain, & Dry” method.

The Lake Host program at Newfound Lake is part of a statewide effort led by NH LAKES and coordinated locally by the Newfound Lake Region Association. This seasonal position typically runs from May through October.
