Sloan's Lake Needs you
Sloan's Lake is struggling
We can do something about it. The lake has filled in over the last several decades, and without action, it will never be useable by residents and visitors to Denver.
Currently no boating is allowed, and no swimming for you or your dogs!
Join us in making the restoration of Sloan's Lake a priority for the Mayor and City Council, and vote for those candidates who support the water!
