We caught up with Weiss Lake Improvement Association President Carolyn Landrem during the 5th annual Water Festival

Those helping out with Thursday’s program included representatives from the Forestry Service – the County Extension System – the Master Gardeners – and FFA Student Volunteers.

The opportunity to learn how fragile our eco-system is, and the importance of keeping our water sources clean – is a lesson these youngsters will hopefully retain for life

Those meetings begin at 12:00 noon.
