IN ADDITION TO DIRECT LOBBYING, NH LAKES PERFORMS INDIRECT LOBBYING BY ENGAGING ITS SUPPORTER COMMUNITY IN GRASSROOTS LOBBYING OF THE STATE LEGISLATURE.

THE WEBINAR SERIES CONTINUED THROUGH THE FALL AND WINTER AS A MONTHLY OFFERING. TOTAL NUMBER OF REGISTRATIONS FOR THIS NEW OUTREACH ACTIVITY REACHED NEARLY 2,500.
