Purpose
Through the CBCW program, volunteers are trained to conduct boater education interviews at local boat launches. Volunteers show boaters how and where aquatic invasive species (AIS) are most likely to hitch a ride on their watercraft and be transferred to other water bodies. Volunteers perform boat/trailer checks for AIS, distribute informational brochures, and collect and report any new AIS infestations. All ages are welcome to participate. To register, please contact Lisa Burns at Lburns@co.washburn.wi.us or 715-468-4654. For more information on the CBCW program, visit http://www4.uwsp.edu/cnr/uwexlakes/cbcw/.
