Protecting our Natural Resources

With our regional parks, lakes, agriculture and wildlife areas, we have a responsibility to take care of the natural resources in our area. Local non-profits work to not only protect these natural resources, but work to educate others about the fascinating environment in which we live. If you love our lakes, consider joining Fairmont Lakes Foundation or volunteer for their lake cleanup days. Becoming a member of the conservation club, Pheasants Forever or Ducks Unlimited is a fun way to learn more about our area habitats and how to protect them while enjoying outdoor sport, such as hunting and fishing.
