Although not a water safety issue, it is about our lake.   We need volunteers to do the survey EAST of the EF bridge   

Volunteers are needed to float the LKG shoreline and conduct our annual Aquatic Vegetation Survey! 

Information gathered by volunteers about what types of vegetation is growing and where they are located along Lake Gaston’s shoreline is vital in determining how best to manage the vegetationto keep our lake clean and healthy. 

Jessica Bauman, Extension Associate for Lake Gaston with NC State University’s Aquatic Plant Management Program, is working closely with the LGA Lake Environment Committee to coordinate the survey, which takes place September 1 through October 31. This year, due to COVID-19, video training is being offered. If you would like, we can team you up with some more experienced folks. 

Here is a link to a Google Drive folder that contains an mp4 of the training.  Feel free to download it to any device!
