Welcome to Lake Panamoka!

RIDGE, NY | ESTABLISHED 1949

LakePanamoka_Beach1_edited.jpg

Whether you enjoy swimming, tanning, fishing or just a great sense of community, Lake Panamoka has it all! 

 

The Lake Panamoka Civic Association (LPCA) was incorporated in 1949. The LPCA is run by a 9-member Board of Directors and 4 Officers. All of these are strictly volunteer positions. Our mission is to protect, maintain and improve our community properties. This includes the Pavilion and the property surrounding it, along with the lake bottom and all parking lots at our three beaches. The community has played, and continues to play, an important role in keeping our properties private and our lake clean. 

 

We host seasonal holiday parties, along with Movie Nights and more. All of our events are run by volunteers.  If there is an event you would like to help with, or if you think of an event we should add, please call or email us. All help and ideas are welcome! For specific dates and times, please continue to check our bulletin board in front of the Pavilion, check our Facebook page, Instagram and website.

Please support our sponsors!
