WICOLA, Ely Festivals, and AIS!

Thanks to all the volunteers who staffed the WICOLA Booth in 2016 during the three major Ely Festivals; Great American Canoe Festival, Blueberry Arts Festival, and Harvest Moon Festival. The WICOLA booth was staffed by WICOLA members, Lake County SWCD, MN DNR, and members of the Ely Area Invasives Team.

We also wish to extend our appreciation to the many people who took the time to stop by the WICOLA Booth to learn more about the WICOLA Organization as well as learn more about Aquatic Invasive Species and methods to prevent their spread into the White Iron Chain of Lakes. During the 3 festivals, WICOLA distributed Aquatic Invasive Species information to more than 1,100 individuals.

Pictured are just a few of the many volunteers and attendees at the WICOLA Booths during 2016.
