OSSIPEE — Two environmental groups are embarking on a campaign to ask boaters to stay out of restricted portions of the Ossipee Lake Natural Area. 

Ossipee Lake Alliance, based in Freedom, and Green Mountain Conservation Group, based in Effingham, said in a statement issued Monday that the initiative is in response to the spike in boaters last year "as COVID-19 restrictions and lockdowns spread across the region." The natural area is also known as Long Sands.
