Eurasian Watermilfoil Is In Our Waters. Join the Campaign to Protect Our Waters!
Save The Chain is a community-wide initiative to raise funds needed to control and prevent the spread of Eurasian watermilfoil and to educate our community about this aquatic invasive species.
The goal: Raise $250,000 by July 5, 2025
Why? Eurasian watermilfoil can affect:
- Local and Personal Economics: Businesses, tourism, and property owners depend on the pristine condition of our lakes.
- Ecological Health: Eurasian watermilfoil displaces native plant species which may endanger fish habitats and overall biodiversity.
- Recreational Enjoyment: Thick Eurasian watermilfoil mats ruin activities like swimming, boating, and fishing.
Who is involved: This is a joint effort of the Manitowish Waters Lakes Association, the Manitowish Waters Lions Club, the Manitowish Waters Alliance Foundation, with technical assist and implementation from the North Lakeland Discovery Center. And hopefully you!!!
Please consider donating to Save The Chain.
