The AALM

AALM was founded in early 1912 as the Lake Manitou Improvement Company and changed its name to L’Association pour l’amélioration de lac Manitou et de ses environs some years later. At 108 years old, it is one of the oldest association of residents in the Laurentians!

Its goal is to keep the lake clean in order to “preserve and maintain the quality of life we enjoy so much.” Another is to ensure that its members are adequately represented on the local municipal council and that their views are made known to the council. A third is to provide a way for area residents to meet and discuss issues of general interest to the community.
