NAMAKAGON LAKE ASSOCIATION, INC.: Education Outreach Program

The Namakagon Lake Association, Inc. is sponsoring a project that includes the placement of three different lake issue ads in the "Visitor Magazine" published in Hayward, WI. The ads will be focused on a different lake issue and run for three consecutive issues, of which there will be 9 total for 2004. Issues include, exotic species and how to prevent their spread through watercraft inspection; lake use regulations, courtesy rules, & personal watercraft. A topic for the third proposed add had not been finalized. This publication has a circulation of around 100,000 and covers a large portion of Bayfield & Sawyer Counties.

The Namakagon Lake Association will also work with the Drummond Elementary School to promote safe lake use and lake conservation education to its' students. A five-day program to learn about the lake, involving elementary students will be developed. Teachers & students will participate in events on and around the lake in cooperation with Lake Association volunteers who will run the programs.
