By Chain Link
The best choice, if possible, is to get your boat out of the water. If the vessel is small and can be easily transported on a trailer, get it out of the water and move it to higher ground. Check your trailer: tires, bearings and axle should all be in good condition. Too often a flat tire, frozen bearings or a broken axle prevents the owner from moving a boat.
• Protect boat and contents. If it is not possible to store your boat inside a shelter, remove all equipment and store that indoors. Don’t park your trailer and boat under trees........cont. >more

Please consider volunteering to serve on our Board of Directors. Regular meetings not your style? Help with our education committee. Do you like festivals? We always need volunteers to man our tables at local festivals. You talk with your neighbors and see the wonderful youth of our community get excited about the lakes and their critters. These opportunities take very little time but are so valuable to BCCA. Maybe politics is your passion. We always need volunteers to attend County Commission meetings or the local Navigation District Advisory Board meetings. Do you have a creative side? Would you like to help make a scrap book of all the clippings involving our watershed over the last 40 years? Do you have an interest in painting? We are trying to paint the canal between Down and Wauseon but can't seem to get the master plan or the manpower interested..... WE NEED YOUR HELP! >more
