Taking a stake in Dane County lakes

Some local scuba divers are giving back to the lakes the only way they know how: by cleaning trash off the bottom.

It's all part of the 22 annual Take a Stake in the Lakes. That's a series of events to help clean up and appreciate Dane county's lakes. The event featured scuba divers skimming the bottom of lake Monona.

Along with beauty, it also helps out the fish down below.

Joann Hoffman, the Scuba coordinator, says, "It's just not good for them to have rusting cans, rusting barrels down there. Tarps covering the bottom so that the natural environment can't do what it's supposed to do."...[WKOWTV.com]
