Boat Wash Fund

The Boat Wash Fund was established in 2022. It is intended to endow the costs associated with operating and financing the equipment essential to running the Glen Lake boat wash facility. This operation, located at the DNR public boat launch on Day Forest Road, is considered the “first line of defense” against invasive species entering Glen Lake. The income of this fund may be used to cover annual boat wash expenditures.

Watershed Scientist Fund

The Watershed Scientist Fund was created in 2020 to offset the cost of this essential staff position. Employing a dedicated watershed scientist is a critical part of the Association’s watershed protection efforts which include addressing endangered and invasive species, monitoring water quality, tackling challenges (such as swimmer’s itch), and engaging in important scientific studies.
