Currents June 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.

June2Another great opportunity to help reduce the amount of fishing line left along our rivers is by adopting one of our fishing line recycling bins! Currently, we have 20 bins installed throughout the Toledo area at various parks and fishing hot spots. Some locations include International Park, Cullen Park, Orleans Park, Side Cut Metropark, and the National Museum of the Great Lakes. We need volunteers, like you, to adopt these bins for the summer and early fall. Adopting a bin means that you will empty the contents, sort and clean the line, record the amount of line and lead collected, and return the line and lead to the PCS office (each time or at the end of the season).  If interested in adopting a bin, please check out our website for more information or call our office at (419) 874-0727.
