Aquaman01 Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Hi,I'm seriously considering doing an Adopt-a-River program site somewhere in the Upper Mississippi / Elk / Crow areas. I'm currently in the research phase, and now would be a good time to find out if there's any participation/sponsorship interest from folks here at FishingMN.comThe commitment consists of at least two annual clean-ups of the site. I'd like to do more. Please chime in with interest, comments, and questions. I may not have answers, but I'll do what I can.Again, at this point I'm trying to guage interest level. The site I choose to pursue will have a lot to do with what kind of workforce I can put on it.http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/adoptriver/index.html------------------Aquaman< )/////><{"I think we're gonna need a bigger boat."[This message has been edited by Aquaman01 (edited 04-04-2003).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 Aqua,I would be willing to make a cash donation of $100 towards the clean up project.Maybe you could talk to a local boyscout troop and they could use it as a fundraiser. It seems they are always in need of money for projects.If I can help let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 Aquaman01, Being a past BSA member and PROUD parent of an Eagle Scout, you could get in contact with many BSA Chapters around the area to allow them this opportunity towards their own "senior" level boy's involvements in this, attaining the highest Boy Scouting level of Eagle Scout. This is a self directed project that the young man(men) could coordinate their fellow Boy Scouts along WITH you. Just an idea...but if allowed by BSA..lotsa helping hands at your side!
