PADDLE BOARDERS one person or a whole group can cover a lot of shoreline just by getting together on the weekend. Here is what one man accomplished.... media articles garnered a massive team. A picnic at sunset cemented the team. One lake, with over 150 miles of shoreline was claimed by many paddle boarding teams on a tracking map. https://www.castanet.net/news/Vernon/270316/Okanagan-Kal-lakes-are-lot-cleaner-after-lots-of-hard-work

PADDLE BOARDERS please note: Paddle Boarders can see and reach what Volunteers doing shoreline cleanup or monitoring can't see. Dropping a waterproof camera on a secure line into the water will show disgusting garbage... sofa's etc. A Pro Cam 4 camera under a dock shows who used styro foam illegally for buoyancy. Make note of the address and call the By-Law office anonymously. Never approach the dock or floating dock owner !
