Hi everyone we invite you to cleanup around the lake and rivers during this time. The cleanup will be conducted the same manner as last year. However, we will not be having the festivities at Narrows Park this year. There will be smaller celebratory cookouts held by individuals around the lake and river and information on those will be provided during cleanup week or posted at area marinas. Thank you for your many years of keeping our lakes, rivers, highways and byways clean. We hope to resume the big celebration next year.
