Big Lake Chamber Of Commerce
About the Chamber :
By the end of the 1940's, a few other homesteaders joined Gronwoldt and the Andersons, and when in the early 1950's a road was put through, a flood of fishermen and recreationists poured forth onto the shores of Big Lake. This was just after World War II and many military people chose Anchorage and the Mat-Su Valley for their new home. Big Lake became Anchorage's playground. With wonderful fishing, 50 miles of shoreline and many islands all in the spectacular setting of the mountain-fringed Mat-Su Valley, Big Lake was a recreational paradise.
