Langley – The Grand River
Dam Authority Ecosystems Management Department is announcing the dates and
locations for its 2011“Rush For Brush” artificial fish habitat construction
events. This year’s events will take place:

Cherokee Golf Course
• All events are scheduled to
begin at 8 AM
• Once the habitats are

Grand and Hudson lakes.
Rush For Brush workshops are
a concentrated effort to improve the fish habitat in GRDA lakes. At the
workshops, GRDA provides the materials necessary to build “spider block”
artificial fish habitats and lake area volunteers provide the manpower. Working
together the past four years, over 500 volunteers and GRDA have deployed more
than 6,000 structures.
For more information, or to
reserve a space (materials are limited) in one of the upcoming courses, please
