Reflections On The Lake
|
"I think that it is education. How do you enjoy the lake without ruining it? Like any ecology, if it is overused it is going to develop problems. You have to learn to deal with the growth. People can’t afford to just have a good time on the lake without being responsible for what goes on. I don’t think that as a whole people are any different than they used to be, it’s just that there are so many more of them. Every little thing people do that effects the lake is being done by a lot of other people, it all adds up, nothing is insignificant." Joan Lukens |
