Friends of Tillson Lake is a volunteer nonprofit opposing plans by the Palisades Interstate Park Commission and New York State Parks to remove the dam and drain Tillson Lake, in Minnewaska State Park near Gardiner, New York. It raises money for ecologists, environmentalists, and legal counsel to argue for keeping the lake, and organizes residents to write and call officials. The group describes the lake as a wildlife refuge and a nearly century-old recreational resource for Ulster County and beyond.
