Looking for a boat safety check for 2010? Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District will be conducting free checks at several lakes during National Safe Boating Week May 22-28.
The district announced that MWCD lake rangers will handle the boat inspections on May 22 and May 23 at the following locations and times:
Pleasant Hill Lake public boat launch ramp – Saturday, May 22, from 10 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
Tappan Lake public boat launch ramp (off Rt. 250 just east of the dam) – Saturday, May 22, from 10 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
Charles Mill Lake public boat launch ramp (near entrance to Charles Mill Lake Park) – Sunday, May 23, from 10 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
Leesville Lake public boat launch ramp (near Clow’s Marina) – Sunday, May 23, from 10 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
National Safe Boating Week is a program managed by the National Safe Boating Council and the North American Safe Boating Campaign. In 2010, the campaign is again encouraging boaters to be safe and to always wear a life jacket whenever they are on the water. Of the 709 recreational boating fatalities in 2008, nearly 90 percent of the victims were not wearing their life jackets.)
