Our primary resource in this region is our lakes. Their quality dramatically affects: our ability to use the lakes, tourism, land values, and the local economy. Nasty alien animals and plants are already in many lakes, and two of these invaders, Zebra Mussels and Eurasian Water Milfoil, are in Roosevelt. Like it or not we are engaged in a never-ending battle with invasives. Check out the resources on this page to learn more about these invaders and what part you can play in this battle.
