Get ready to honor the breathtaking Lake Memphremagog once again with the 2nd annual Celebrate Lake Memphremagog event, happening on Tuesday, June 25th, at the scenic Eastside venue in Newport. This day is dedicated to appreciating the natural beauty and ecological importance of what’s fondly called the Crown Jewel of the Northeast Kingdom.
Why Lake Memphremagog?
Lake Memphremagog is more than just a body of water; it’s a vital part of the community that touches lives across the international borders of the United States and Canada. Its pristine waters not only provide spectacular scenic views but are also crucial for local wildlife and the community. This celebration, sponsored by Don’t Undermine Memphremagog’s Purity (D.U.M.P.), aims to highlight and support ongoing efforts to protect the water quality of Lake Memphremagog for present and future generations.
Musical Treats and Gourmet Eats
The event will feature the thrilling sounds of The Mike Goudreau Band, starring Eastern Township’s guitar hero, Mike Goudreau. Alongside Mike, native son Gary Matthews on bass, Gabe Jarrett rocking the drums, and Matt Dolliver on sax will ensure your feet don’t touch the ground from 6-9 PM. To keep your energy up, favorite local food trucks, Smokin’ Blue Devil and Runaway Tomato, will be serving delicious eats from 5-8 PM.
A Community Effort
Henry Coe, the event organizer, emphasized the collective affection and responsibility the community feels towards Lake Memphremagog. Last year’s celebration saw a great turnout, reinforcing the community’s commitment to preserving this natural wonder. According to Henry, “Every effort to protect the lake contributes to the quality of life for all of us, locals and visitors alike.”
