The Lake Anasagunticook Association (LAA) is a Maine non-profit organization that was formed in the fall of 1988 as the Canton Lake Association and became a 501(c)(3) organization in 2008. The association was formed to ensure development on the lake is consistent with the preservation of the quality and beauty that residents and summer visitors have experienced and want to maintain for the future. The LAA brings together people who care about Lake Anasagunticook and is funded by member donations and other fundraising activities.
