What do I need to do to help out with Grenada Habitat Day? Just show up? Do i need to bring anything?
Just show up, if ya got a 4 wheeler bring it
I can probably help with this. I'll have about a 3 hour drive. Is there somewhere I can get the exacts, time, tools, etc?? I have a 4 wheeler and will bring it but need to know exactly what else. Is it just on that Saturday?
Thanks.
I will probably get a press release in the next day or two and will post it.
I work these every year at one or two of the big four and normally the corps will provide all of the supplies you need. Anyone riding on a 4 Wheeler will be required to wear a helmet. Bring some good work gloves, a bottle of water and some wire cutters and you should be good to go.Quote:

Volunteers Needed
Grenada Lake’s
Fish Habitat Day Activities
Saturday, February 13, 2016
Grenada Lake is looking for volunteers to participate in their annual Fish Habitat Day Activities. Volunteers are asked to meet at 8:00 a.m. at the North Graysport Boat Ramp on Saturday, February 13, 2016. We will provide a light breakfast followed by instructions on constructing fish shelters and a short safety meeting. This year volunteers will construct stake beds and place trees on the west side of Graysport Crossing near North Graysport. Volunteers are asked to bring their ATVs (please remember your helmet), post/stake drivers, gloves, and dress appropriately for the weather. Volunteers will return to the North Graysport boat ramp for lunch and door prizes. This is an excellent opportunity for our fishermen and conservationist to give back to our natural resources and keep Grenada Lake as our nation’s top Crappie Fishing Lake. For directions or additional information please contact Keith Gaskin at 662-227-0221.
This is very cool, I wished my lake did this.
Sounds like a fun event. Don't forget your GPS!!! [emoji4]
I plan to be there... If I can find a helmet to borrow
I hope for as good of weather as we had at Enid. A large turnout would be great too.
Can we use UTV's (Polaris Ranger) or just ATV's? Do you have to wear a helmet using a UTV? We don't own any helmets. We live in Arkansas head injuries are normal here! Lol!
Yes you can and yes you should have a helment, last thing we need is an arkie down here getting a little bump on his head claim loss of brain function that everyone knows he didn't have in the first place!!!:Rofl
Helmets are REQUIRED for atv use on COE land.
Easy now! I resemble that statement! Lol!Quote:

At Enid we had a few cables and a few ATVs pulling trees down to the flat. I stayed at the pile and filled the cables with trees for the next rider. We would swap out cables and load up for the next rider. After all the material was on the flat I walked down and built a few mats. Some of the older mats were rebuilt and/or added to. I'll plan to do the same.
Dang, the weather channel has dropped the high for saturday by 12 degrees.
Gonna have to burn the stakes just to stay warm!Quote:

Think I'll bring some tackle and fish the spillway before going home.
My mother broke her arm and is having surgery today. I wont be making it anymore. Ya'll stay warm out there
Anybody that is planning on coming have an extra stake/post driver? A piece of pipe with a cap on it? I have a rubber dead blow hammer, but I suspect that might not be fast enough???
The COE at Enid borrowed post drivers from Sardis and Grenada. I think our group had 6.
I'm bringing a 3 lb hand sledge.
Had about 20 4 wheelers today at North Graysport. A small trailer of christmas trees and a large trailer of stakes. The driver went for another load of stakes and we went to the east side.
Stan, a few others and I stayed behind to load 4 wheelers. I hoped they would dump them and we all help with driving them into the flats. There were 4 post drivers that weren't used.
At about 1:30 we stopped, had a prayer, pizza, door prizes, loaded remaining stakes into trucks that would be used at other locations on the lake and came home.
