Iowa Driftless Water Defenders asked for volunteers to visit one of Iowa’s endangered lakes over Memorial Day weekend and make a video about their personal relationship to the lake in order to highlight the loss of Iowa’s public waters to pollution and call for the end of our #NoSwimEra.
From Driftless FB page:
Max, who’s been running the concession and boat rental at George Wyth Lake for about 10 years, has noticed a huge downturn in the number of people at the beach lately.
The 48 Lakes Initiative is a Driftless Water Defenders project, with help from:
Progress Iowa
Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement
Food & Water Watch Iowa
and volunteer reporters all over Iowa
If you would like to participate in the 48 Lakes Initiative, they are still seeking volunteers. This will be a summer long effort.
