2010 will go down as a great year for Lake Lanier.  The water returned to Lake Lanier and so did the crowds. Businesses around the lake saw more customers despite the recession as the lake level stayed high all year including the hot summer months.

As 2011 is approaching we will continue to monitor the efforts of CoE, local and state governments, and concerned citizens to help keep the water level high at Lake Lanier. Thanks to all of you for making 2010 a successful year.
