Pirates & Parrots: A Fundraiser to Eradicate Parrot Feather
Lake Chatuge is facing a dire threat from an invasive aquatic weed known as “Parrot Feather.” This insidious plant has rapidly spread across an estimated 275 square acres of the lake, posing a significant risk to its delicate ecosystem and recreational activities. Without immediate intervention, the situation will only worsen leading to potentially devastating consequences for our community and its natural resources.
Together, we can make a difference!
