What We Do
The Friends of Claytor Lake 501(c)(3) was formed in 1992 in response to woody debris build-up in Claytor Lake.
Since then, FOCL (pronounced “foh-cal”) has grown and has a full crew to support the demands of high flow events each season. FOCL’s crew of 4 works seasonally to keep public ramps, launch areas, shorelines, docks, main channels and other navigation areas free of floating woody debris. More information is available on our Debris Clean Up page. With your support, we’re able to continue these efforts, along with so much more!
