“The Governor’s Cup awards are designed to recognize those businesses that have demonstrated an outstanding ability to influence their communities for a better quality of life,” Governor Barbour said.  “They represent the leaders across our state making a difference through their community involvement and economic impact.”

Yogi on the Lake worked with the city of Pelahatchie during construction and continues to have a close relationship with the community.  “Our support from the community has been overwhelming.” Claudia Tutt stated.  Claudia and her husband Howard Tutt are the managers of Yogi on the Lake.
With  planned activities, an on site resteraunt and accommodations for everything from tents, to RV’s, to cabins, you would be hard pressed to find a better place to enjoy your stay.  For those residents nearby, day rates are available so that everyone can enjoy meeting Yogi Bear ™, Boo Boo™, and Cindy Bear™, playing in the Water Zone, or just taking it easy fishing in the 95 acre lake.  

The award will be presented at a banquet, scheduled for July 24, 2008, during the MEDC Summer Conference.  This award is one of the highest honors presented by the Govenor of Mississippi, recognizing the significant impact within the Pelahatchie community that Yogi on the Lake has had during 2007.
