Lake Shore Cleanup Event At Patoka Lake

Last updated on Wednesday, July 20, 2016

(PATOKA) - Fun in the sun at Patoka leaves a lot more behind than just summer memories.

It results in trash and debris buildup along the lakeshore.

Your help will be needed to restore the lake to its pristine condition for wildlife safety and people to enjoy.

Help remove trash and debris from the shores of Patoka Lake on Saturday, August 27th from 8am - 1p.m. Sign-in begins at 8a.m. at Hoosier Hills Marina with trash pickup to follow.

All participating volunteers will be rewarded with a FREE fish fry at Hoosier Hills Marina starting at Noon.

Special prize drawings will take place from 11:30 - 1p.m. Last year volunteers went home with tickets to Shotz laser tag and putt putt golf, Patoka Lake Marina lake cruises, t-shirts, Frisbees, rain collection barrels and prize packets! Volunteers should wear sturdy walking shoes.

All supplies will be provided, just bring your family, friends, students and club members! Patoka is YOUR lake, so come join us in keeping it clean!

For more information, please call Dana at the Patoka Lake Nature Center at (812) 685-2447.
