Currents February 2017

Did you know that the Great Lakes are the biggest freshwater source in the world? Lake Erie is the most productive for fishing of all the Great Lakes. Your support helps make our streams clean, clear and healthy so they can support this complex ecosystem. By donating to PCS, you help us reach our goals of restoring rivers that lead to Lake Erie beaches that promote fishable and swimmable conditions for generations.

Feb3Each year, the Toledo Roadrunners Club chooses a select group of local non-profit organizations to become charity partners of the Mercy Health Glass City Marathon.  For the second year, Partners for Clean Streams was awarded this honor! If you or someone you know plans to participate in the Marathon this coming April, consider donating to PCS as a part of your registration and dedicate your run/walk to the rivers! Last year, we received a number of donations from gracious runners and walkers alike. This year, we would love to see more participation and support for PCS and the work we do in protecting our local streams, rivers, and lakes. Picture this: running the route on race day, over the Ottawa River and other small streams, knowing that you have positively benefited those waterways through your participation in the Marathon! If that’s not motivation, I don’t know what is! To learn more about the Mercy Health Glass City Marathon charity partners or to donate to PCS through the Marathon, check out their website.  Please share with your fellow run/walk enthusiasts and we hope that you run for the rivers in April!
