A second attempt at a state grant succeeded placing Lake County on the short list for a substantial grant that cleans up the environment yet generates an income stream if partners can all row in synch.
Registration is open for the Flathead Waters Cleanup, held Saturday, Aug. 12 from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Volunteers for the annual event will clean up trash in and around the rivers, lakes, creeks and ponds of the Flathead watershed in Flathead and Lake counties.
