Floating Treatment Wetlands Installation

Come out to the Crandon Lakes Country Club to learn how floating treatment wetlands can be used to improve the water quality of Crandon Lakes and the surrounding Paulins Kill Watershed. Volunteers are needed to help install native plants inside each floating treatment wetland. We will kick off the event near the pavilion and beach area. Wear sneakers and clothes that can get dirty. If you have a pair of chest waders or a kayak that we can use to put the floating islands in place within the lake, please bring them.

When: Friday, October 25 from 2:00 p.m.-5:00 p.m.
Where: East Beach and Pavilion Area
Why: Floating treatment wetlands will help reduce algae growth in Crandon Lakes.
This is important because excessive algae can lead to harmful algal blooms that negatively impact recreational usage of the lake.
