ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAM

Horse Thief Basin:
Environmental Service with Confidence to make a difference
By Rose and Ron Werner

We as a boating group love to get away to the water. We like to try and make things safer.

Recently we tried something different. A few of us gathered our trash bags and gloves wearing old clothes we headed up to the small Horse thief Lake (Outside of Crown King) to clean it up after the winter. We all were busy and at all times we were joyful with the work we managed to get done. This experience gives one confidence that we can make a difference.

The small lake had all anyone could want. The ducks were swimming with their young. The fish were coming to see if we had a handout. The Rangers knew we were coming but were out on assignment as did the Fireman who were busy doing activities to improve their skills to be better firemen. Both of these groups were very excited that we were coming to help clean.  A few years ago a fire came though leaving many trees burned. We collected several bags of trash.
