In the Beginning

Over 10 years ago, before there was a Glade Run Lake Conservancy (GRLC), a group of disparate individuals met to consider courses of action after learning that Glade Run Lake needed to be drained due to its unsafe earthen dam. None of these individuals had ever started a group, nor had they been officers in a non-profit organization, but each knew that funds, members, and political involvement were needed in order to make a positive change in the community and for the lake.
