Clean Ice, Clean Water

Yes its winter in the ADKS and that means that many enjoy outdoor activities on the lakes. Its all about fun, fresh air and beautiful scenery but the LGA (Lake George Assoc.) has come up with a good awareness campaign to raise awareness regarding the importance of " Clean Ice, Clean Water" which reminds us that what is on the ice in winter melts into the lake water in spring. The program called "Carry On, Carry Off" encourages people to not leave litter, debris or other articles on the ice during their recreational time this winter season. A very good idea and one that all our fish, fowl, flora and fauna will appreciate. I am sure there are many ice fisherman who are just chomping at the bit to get onto Lake George soon. I think we have at least a few weeks wait unfortunately. Let us know when the bays start freezing!!
