In 2023, the Cities of Neenah, Menasha, and Village of Fox Crossing partnered with Fox-Wolf Watershed Alliance and GEI Consultants to assess Little Lakeโ€™s severe algae blooms, invasive plants, and sediment issues. Though that grant-funded project has concluded, we need a community-led association to:

- Secure state grant funding for waterโ€quality projects (WDNR Surface Water Grants)

- Advocate for coordinated management across all three municipalities

- Enhance property values, recreational access, and shoreline protection

- Engage residents, anglers, and businesses in education and outreach

- Invite your friends and neighborsโ€”no lakefront property required.

- Reach out to your municipal representatives; spread the word in Neenah, Menasha, and Fox Crossing.

Together, we can protect and improve Little Lake Butte Des Morts for all who live, work, and play along our shores. See you August 19!
