Celebrate Lakes Day Links: Clean Boats-Clean Waters

I went to the Vilas County Lakes Association celebrate lakes day last Tuesday. Those of you who are concerned about northern Wisconsin lakes should know about the VCLA.

Invasive species are on lots of people's radar. An unintended consequence of invasives are that they may spur creation of more lake associations.

I went to a "Clean Lakes-Clean Waters" workshop on voluntarily monitoring boat landings. If you have a favorite northern Wisconsin lake, volunteer to staff a boatlanding for a few hours this summer. The purpose is primarily educational, and according to most boaters are very supportive.
