No-Wake Buoy Program

The No-Wake Buoy Program was established in 1986 by LOLA to address lake resident concerns with protection of our shorelines from erosion due to boat wakes. There are seventeen No-Wake buoys in the LOLA fleet with locations approved by DNR permit. This program continues to be a LOLA commitment to Lake Orion. LOLA volunteers maintain the fleet including seasonal installation and removal of the buoys. Funding for the program comes from membership dues and Buoy-Buddy donations.
