| Adopt-A-River Clean Up on May 8, 2010 |
|
|
The Adopt-a-River Program is part of the Department of Natural
Resources' Trails and Waterways Division. This division specializes in
providing access to the vast lands and waters of the state. As the
division's stewardship specialists, the Adopt-a-River program challenges
you to become personally involved in the care of our resources. The
Adopt-a-River program, with a watershed approach, links public trails
and floodplain areas into a common fabric: the watershed.
In cooperation with
the MN DNR, Watergate
Yacht Club has adopted one mile of river (1/2 mile on
each side). We walk the river shoreline to pick up trash and debris
that harms the river and the environment. This makes the
river a better place to boat and improves water quality.
