Wanna help out? Volunteer a few minutes of time to clean out the aquatic weeds.
City of Madison Parks has provided several tools at Spring Harbor Beach for park visitors to help remove aquatic weeds from the beach and buoy lines. The tools are located against the west fence behind the kayak/canoe rack. Feel free to get into the water and sweep out the weeds. It’s also good to untangle the weeds from the swimming area buoys. City workers have no method of getting in the water to do this.
Choose the tool that works best for you. Make stacks of aquatic weeds onshore, close, but not in the water. The City of Madison will pick up the piles of accumulated weeds every Tuesday and Thursday during the summer.
