This grant is intended to improve Lake Conroe's overall eco system and fishery providing the local communities and those who
utilize the lake a clean and healthy Lake Conroe to
enjoy for years to come. Our road to success begins
with establishing and
maintaining
noninvasive
aquatic plant nursery for implantation on the lake. SCBC will be the sponsor club, and we have the
backing of the Texas Parks and Wildlife, San Jacinto
River Authority, Bass Anglers Sportsmans Society,
Texas Master Naturalists, The B.A.S.S. Federation Nation, and
the Boy Scouts of America.
With the recent attempts at hydrilla eradication
by local property owners groups, our hopes are that
the introduction of
noninvasive
native aquatic plants will help keep Lake Conroe
clean and beautiful for all to enjoy. As the host
club for this endeavor, we have received offers from
several other clubs within our 48 county region to
help as well. The grant is sponsored by both the
National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, and the Bass
Anglers Sportsmans Society. Our
hopes are to begin implementation of the project in
the spring of 2007.
We are accepting volunteer services in all areas
and phases of our grant project. You can contact our
club if you would like to get involved.
