​Six Decades of Nature. One Future to Protect.


​For 60 years, Lacawac Sanctuary has been a place of discovery—where forests teach, lakes reveal their secrets, and people of all ages connect deeply with the natural world. From groundbreaking ecological research to hands-on environmental education,

​Lacawac has shaped generations of scientists, students, educators, and conservationists. As we celebrate this milestone anniversary, we invite you to help carry this legacy forward.
