Hey! Welcome to our website!!

River Fall has an amazing history of creating its own electricity through a community owned AND operated hydroelectric dam. An extremely rare combination, which sets us apart from others. Clean, renewable and sustainable energy that River Falls does not have to buy from or rely upon anyone else. Junction Falls hydroelectric dam creates Lake George. A pedestrian lake less than one block from our historic downtown district.

Please take your time and wander through the Friends of Lake George website. Tucked inside is River Falls history, how hydroelectric dams work, and a look at the biodiversity of water-life in Lake George and throughout the Kinni River corridor.

If we don’t provide you with the information you are looking for, do not hesitate to click the contact button above and send us an email. FriendsofLakeGeorge.org.

We are excited that you have chosen to take the time to visit our website and hope you take away some very useful information. But we won’t be coy . . we hope that you come away with insight to join us in our mission to keep our hydroelectricity in River Falls, and continue to enjoy Lake George.

About the picture above

Interesting. This picture was taken before the current hydroelectric dam, the Junction Falls dam was built in the summer of 1900. People who want to know what lies behind Junction Falls dam, need only look at this picture. There are no “hidden falls”. All waterfalls you see in this picture are visible today, in front of Junction Falls dam.
