Additionally we pay LEA to do comprehensive water testing on the lake to use in education and to help track and remedy any issues.Expenses $28,104 · grants $5,000
- Donation to LEA. We donate to LEA to support their work that impacts lakes across Maine. We leverage a lot of their education materials and their expertise.Expenses $3,000
- Boat Washing Stations. We coordinate the opening of the boat wash stations and we pay the utilities needed to keep them operational. These stations offer boaters the ability to clean their boats before and after going into the lake to prevent invasive species fragments from being moved from one lake to another.Expenses $548
