Community Partnerships Strengthen in the Fight against Exotic Carp
Midwest Region, May 12, 2008
Print Friendly Version

Every Monday, local business folk from the La Crosse/Onalaska area gather for the Rotary International Club of La Crosse East meetings.  Meetings provide an opportunity for its members to serve their club, vocation, community, and international relationships.  What better way is there for the Rotary International Club to serve than to team up with the Fish and Wildlife Service to serve the community and learn about international issues that involve exotic species?  Together this community partnership can inform others in the area about the possibility of detriment to the environment and negative impacts to the local economy.  Heidi Keuler, from the La Crosse National Fish and Wildlife Conservation Office, spoke to approximately 50 people from the Rotary Club and led a discussion on May 12 about the possible impacts to the Upper Mississippi River and the greater La Crosse area.  Members of the Club volunteered to work with the Service and get the word out to others in the community.
