Get the Lead Out is an educational program to protect and restore the population of common loons in Minnesota by reducing their exposure to lead-based fishing tackle. This outreach effort will run from 2020 to 2023. Join us at the Legacy of the Lakes Museum as experts from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency discuss this threat to our native species and what you can do to help.

This event is free and open to the public. It will be held in person at the Legacy of the Lakes BoatHouse. Bring in your old lead tackle and receive an admission pass to the Legacy of the Lakes Museum.

This program is co-sponsored by the Douglas County Lakes Association and is part of We Are Water MN’s related programs hosted by the museum. Cover photo via https://www.pca.state.mn.us/living-green/lead-free-fishing-tackle-get-lead-out.
