10th Anniversary Celebrated

The Rainy Lake Conservancy will recognize its 10th anniversary this weekend.

The Conservancy will hold its annual meeting Sunday at La Place Rendez-Vous beginning at 2 p.m.

Dale Callaghan, one of the founding members, says the group has been effective in its work to preserve and protect the Rainy Lake watershed during its time.

"We're involved in water testing," says Callaghan, "something we've been involved with since we started. We've promoted science and research on Rainy Lake. We have a board member on the Rainy Lake Fisheries Charity Trust. We promote clean water and healthy shorelines."

Callaghan says the work they're doing now is all for the future of the area.

The meeting is open to the public.

The guest speaker will be Rachael Hill, district planner with the Ministry of Natural Resources.
