The first Adirondack Community Interpretive Center (ACIC) was completes in 2000 with the purpose of "providing information among institutions, organizations, residents, and visitors in order to foster greater understanding and appreciation for the stewardship of the Adirondack Park's natural resources and human settlements." The ACIC gives historical and practical information to the visitor about the immediate community as well as the Adirondack Park. Inlet's ACIC also serves as the major information resource for Inlet's waterways.
The Inlet Information Office and Publicity Department, housed in the Town Hall Building adjacent to Arrowhead Park, serves to promote the Hamlet of Inlet and surrounding area, its businesses, social, cultural, and recreational resources to the visitor. It provides information regarding local events, programs, and services through the publication of calendar and event schedules, and sponsors, often in conjunction with the Town of Inlet, many local events throughout the year which attract visitors to the area.
Adirondack Discovery is a program which offers social and recreational events and activities to residents and visitors of all ages. Programs are offered at low or no cost and range from slide shows, hikes, lectures, and nature discovery programs, to musical concerts.
The Fulton Chain of Lakes Performing Arts Council, Inc. was formed in 1998 in order to bring the Syracuse Symphony to Inlet for an annual summer event. The first concert in 1999 at Arrowhead Park was such a huge success that additional space and an afternoon youth concert were added during 2000. The community looks forward to the Symphony's appearance as an annual event.
The Inlet Youth Commission offers a variety of programs to the youth of the area. With a summer program offering baseball, softball, swimming, tennis and golf lessons and excursion such as to New York City to see the Rockettes or to watch the New York Yankees.

The American Legion and Auxiliary Leonard-Mick-Roberts Post #1402 was established in 1946. The post includes members from both the Towns of Inlet and Raquette Lake. In 1956 they purchased a used Cadillac ambulance and housed it in their garage to be used for emergencies. They ran this service until the early 1990’s when the Volunteer Ambulance Squad was formed. The legion and the auxiliary send one boy and one girl from the area to Boys State and Girls State every year. They are hosts to the Hamilton County Memorial Day Parade every four years. They participate in memorial services for departed comrades. And they are always willing to participate in programs that will benefit the area especially those involving area youth.
