Pond Clinic Planned
    Are you planning to have a pond built?  Do you have a pond related question?  Are weeds in your pond becoming a problem?  Would you like to stock fish in your new pond?  What about pond liability?
    For the answers to these and many other questions, plan to attend the Pond Clinic sponsored by the Van Wert Soil and Water Conservation
District.  The clinic will be held on Thursday, June 18at 6:30 p.m. at the YMCA Camp Clay on Liberty Union Road, Van Wert.            
    The clinic will feature presentations on pond construction, pond liability, stocking the pond, water and boat safety and aquatic vegetation management.
    The clinic is free of charge and is open to the public.  It will be held weather permitting.  Contact the Van Wert SWCD at 238-9591 if the
weather is questionable.  Participants are encouraged to bring a lawn chair. Refreshments will be provided by the SWCD at the conclusion of
the clinic.
    Directions to the clinic are from Van Wert:  take Lincoln Highway west to Liberty Union Road, turn south and go approximately 1 mile.  Camp
Clay is on the right side of the road. The clinic will be back by the pond.  Signs will be posted.
