SUMMARY:Kayak Clean Up & Invasive Species Awareness at Prairie Queen
DESCRIPTION:Our Nebraska wildlife thrive in clean and healthy spaces\, and people do too! Join Nebraska Game and Parks outdoor educators\, Invasive Species staff and members of the Greater Omaha Scuba club for a fun\, late-morning aquatic habitat clean up at Prairie Queen Recreation Area on Sunday morning\, May 31. \nIn addition to removing litter and improving the lake’s appearance\, this event will help raise awareness about aquatic invasive species found in the waterbody\, and throughout Nebraska. These invasive species negatively impact recreation\, Nebraska’s economy\, and native aquatic life by outcompeting native species and disrupting the lake’s ecosystem.

You will be emailed prior to the event to confirm your registration and any needed details. We will provide trash bags & gloves for all those interested in helping to clean up trash while on the water.  \n We will meet at the boat ramp and dock just off of the intersection of 132nd Street and Cornhusker Road\, on the West side of the lake. This area is in the northernmost section of the lake. On google maps it is identified as Prairie Queen’s Recreation Area.  \nThis event is free and we welcome you to either borrow a kayak or bring your own! Due to limited kayak supply\, we do require registration. \nTo use a kayak from Nebraska Game and Parks\, REGISTER HERE \n(Kayaks are available to people ages 10 & up\, and are limited to a first come first serve basis) \nTo let us know you plan on coming and that you’re either bringing your own kayak\, or cleaning up on land\, REGISTER HERE  \n  \nFor questions\, please contact Jena Paugels at jena.paugels@nebraska.gov. \n
