We are committed to ensuring the safety of its diverse users throughout all seasons, and we strive to preserve the quality of life of everyone who cherishes this extraordinary resource.

Our objectives span from protecting the lake's ecosystems to maintaining the serenity, beauty, and safety of the community members. LTA takes pride in its role as a steward of this cherished asset, and we are dedicated to planning and organizing initiatives that promote the development and cultural vitality of the lake and its surrounding areas.

By preserving and nurturing our great lake, LTA aims to cultivate a thriving community that cherishes and benefits from this unparalleled natural resource.

History

The LAC TREMBLANT PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION was was established in the early 1980s and became incorporated on November 25, 1983.   On June 19th, 2009, the name of the association was changed to L'Association du Lac Tremblant/Lake Tremblant Association by the resolution.

As a local, not-for-profit, and non-political association, the LTA consists of people who reside around Lac Tremblant, the Mountain, and its surroundings.

The current president is Mr Gary LITTLEJOHN.

The distinguished list of former Presidents includes Mrs Annette PANKRAC, Messrs Gerry HARRISON, Kevin REYNOLDS, Don MURPHY, Bryan OSBORN, Steve SHAW, and Andre JULIEN.

As the "voice" of Lac Tremblant, the Association's elected Board of Directors has been delegated by the membership to maintain a liaison between the local councils and other entities that can influence the quality of life in and around the lake.

The Association's policy is to remain impartial on disputes between members and help to redirect members to relevant assistance when needed. Through the strength of membership, the association stands as an advocate for the interests of Lake Tremblant.

Our Primary Concerns

  • Assuring the quality of our water – This is number one and overrides all! Do you know many cottagers still draw drinking water straight from the lake? LTA routinely tests the water and works with environmentalists to determine best practices to implement for our lake, in balance with the needs of our members.

  • Striving for a reasonable balance for development in the region that affects our lake. We’ve tempered commercial development, to reduce their impact. We were instrumental in eliminating projects like the commercial floatplanes.

  • Encouraging the social benefits of life on our lake.

  • Keeping the Code of Conduct relevant to all, ensuring the safety and well being of all lake users ad relevant stakeholders year round.

Each Director brings a skill set with them that contributes to the cohesiveness of the Board of Directors of the LTA, and invests an phenomenal amount of hours towards protecting the Lake and its environment. Aside from a quick mention at the Annual General Meeting, they are not recognized for all the hours of work invested towards protecting the legacy of Lac Tremblant. Their efforts, however, do not go unrecognized, as the Lake would not be what it is, without their presence.
