Foundation Honours WICOLA with Lake Steward Award at 2018 Forum
The Foundation presented the Gerry Wilson Stewardship Award to the White Iron Chain of Lakes Association (WICOLA) for their leadership in civic engagement, outreach, research and partnerships.
Teresa Sagen, WICOLA president, accepted the award on behalf of the Association and all its members who have worked for over 25 years to develop and conduct programs in partnership with Minnesota’s natural resource agencies to fill gaps in monitoring and science and engage hundreds of volunteers in work to protect the headwaters in the Rainy-Lake of the Woods watershed.
