The Sokokis Lake Association was founded in 1956 “to serve the needs of property owners and those who use Sokokis Lake.

Activities include a one mile swim, horseshoe tournament, canoe, paddleboat and kayak races, plus a Ski Team show and boat parade. The association happily supports the Ski Team.”
