from the surrounding five or six counties.
The word VOLUNTEER will be a big part of that day. We will need people
to help with both the walk/run and with the Dundee Daze picnic. Please
set aside that day–or part of that day–to lend a hand. Please call Donna
Osgood, 920/533-4807 or Marilyn Edwards, 920/533-4430 to tell us you
will be available. Many volunteers will be needed on Saturday, July 10th
but some will also be needed in the days before and after the event.
This is a full community project. We thank the community in advance for
your help. And we hope you have fun, too, and possibly meet some new
people. We hope many of you will also consider enjoying the new trails
between the lakes as part of Kenny’s Walk/Run.
Thanks to Kenny Schneider for allowing us to feature him in this event,
so important to him and others living with Parkinson’s disease. You can
tell him yourself when you see him “around town”. Be sure to look for
him at the Sportsman’s Park on the 10th of July, too.
All for a good cause!

in warm water on hot, calm summer days. These blooms may look like blue
or green paint and release noxious odors as the algae decomposes.
Blue-green algae may produce toxins which can irritate swimmers’ skin;
in some cases, these toxins have killed animals such as dogs, cattle,
and waterfowl that have consumed large amounts of the water containing
the toxins. General rule: When you see conditions like this avoid
swimming in the water until it clears up, and keep your animals out of
the water as well. We can't eliminate blue-green algae – they’re an
inherent part of the overall algal community in many lakes. To control
the intensity and frequency of blue-green algal blooms, the best thing
to do is reduce the amount of nutrients entering the lake. Lawn
fertilizer, runoff from cities, cultivated farm fields, feedlots,
construction sites and many other sources all contribute phosphorus to
our lakes. The response to reducing nutrient levels will not be
immediate, but it is the best long-term solution. |
