By all measures Schroon Lake is a jewel in the crown of all ADK towns. Compared to many other hamlets, Schroon Lake has so much to offer its year round residents, second home owners, day trippers and vacationers.

What makes this town tick is the work of dedicated individuals in the public and private sectors as well as the community groups.

And since 1976, Schroon Lake has recognized those outstanding citizens and groups who have made a difference in our community.

And now the Schroon Lake Chamber of Commerce is seeking nominations for the Citizen or Organization of the Year 2012.
