CLC Executive Director Freitag joins Lake Monroe Water Fund Board of Directors

CLC is pleased to announce Executive Director, Christian Freitag, has joined the Board of Directors for the Lake Monroe Water Fund.  The Lake Monroe Water Fund is an active funder for watershed projects that conserve, protect and sustain Lake Monroe as a shared community water resource. Its board includes leaders from the five counties that surround Lake Monroe who share goals of community education about watersheds and understanding external impacts to drinking water.


“Lake Monroe is the largest inland lake in the state. It’s a huge economic driver for a lot of counties. It’s not just for people to fish and boat. It’s not just a recreational lake. It’s critically important.”

— Christian Freitag

Since it was created, the Lake Monroe reservoir has become Indiana’s largest inland lake and offers recreation opportunities as well as drinking water to more than 128,000 customers in Monroe county as well as supplementing other water sources for people in Brown County.
