lschultz • January 7, 2020

On the Water has successfully held nine events in Michigan. 203 individuals have attended an OTW event which totals 756.6 volunteerhours. The bodies of water that have benefited from these events are the Red Cedar River, Manistee River, Clinton River, Lake Lansing, Flint River, Battle Creek River, Munuscong River, and Shiawassee River State Game Area. In just a few short months OTW has achieved so much, and we are looking forward to a jam-packed field season in 2020.

We are impacting watersheds all over the state this year, from Sault Ste Marie to Jackson. We are going to be making a difference in a watershed near you!

With the continued support of the coalition, we will continue fighting to protect proposal G. Consider joining the Coyote Coalition , and let the commission know that inaction is not acceptable, and to follow their legal charge and responsibility.
