Landowners often form a lake association to provide residents with a forum to raise concerns, to become educated about problems, and to work for solutions in an organized manner. The objectives of the Sixberry Lake Association are a good example.

1. To promote high standards of care and conservation of Sixberry Lake.
2. To encourage the preservation of wildlife, fish, and bird sanctuaries, and the conservation of marginal lands to swamps and ponds. To protect plant life in its native state. To preserve the watershed of Sixberry Lake.
3. To encourage legislation to the foregoing, to aid public authorities in so doing and to affiliate with any other organization that has purposes similar to this.
4. To circulate literature or any other method of informing the public of the need for such conservation work for the health of Sixberry Lake.
