Donations are used to pay for SLA administration costs, insurance, meeting expenses, and event expenses.
In 2024, the Sage Lake Association established Mary Ellen's Fun Day Fund, supporting an event that was close to her heart. Contributions to the fund will help the event continue to serve the lake's youngest fans with an afternoon carnival on the second Saturday of each July.
