​Why Join SDLCA?

Because Salerno Lake Is Worth Protecting



If you’ve ever watched the sunset from your dock, heard a loon calling across the water, or spent a lazy afternoon paddling along the shoreline, you already know how special Salerno Lake is. For over 50 years, the Salerno (Devil's) Lake Cottagers' Association (SDLCA) has quietly worked behind the scenes to ensure that feeling lasts—for you, your family, and generations to come.

Membership in the SDLCA isn’t just about paying dues; it’s about investing in your lake, your property, and your cottage lifestyle.

When you join the SDLCA, you help:
  • Keep community traditions alive — Concert on the Lake, Canoe Race, and more.
  • Fund educational events and workshops — learn how to care for our shoreline and protect water quality.
  • Cover essential operations — insurance, newsletters, postage, and speaker honorariums.
  • Maintain connections with key organizations — FOCA, CHA, CEWF, and other advocates for Ontario cottage owners.
  • Stay informed — our website, newsletters, and e-Lake Updates keep you up to date on lake and community news.
In short, your membership makes Salerno Lake better and ensures our voices are heard on environmental and community issues.

Why Join Now
  • Because you care about protecting the environment.
  • Because you want to stay informed about township decisions.
  • Because you love connecting with your neighbours and being part of a community.
  • Because this isn’t just a lake—it’s home, family, and summer memories, and it’s worth every bit of care we can give it.

Membership dues are our only source of funding, and growing our membership allows us to offer even more programs, speakers, and initiatives to protect what matters most: our water, our property values, and our way of life at the lake.
