YOUR HELP IS NEEDED!!!
There are two programs that you can choose from to help aid in the fight against these invasive species.
Citizen Lake Monitoring—Keep your eyes peeled for any species (plant or animal) that look suspicious and report any invasive species. You can do this while fishing, swimming, boating or simply from your lake shore.
Clean Boats Clean Waters—Educate boaters at landings about invasive species threatening our waters and inspect boats and trailers. Participants to spot check landings and leave information for boaters are also needed.
Do your part to protect our waters from these aliens who are threatening our lakes. It’s as easy as a phone call or email to become involved and there is FREE training available!
