Ahoy! Now sailing for Operation Zero!

Ready to join Operation Zero: Citizens Removing and Eliminating Waste (OZ C.R.E.W) Experience the lake in a way you never have before while giving back to the park. You can be a hero while taking pollution down to zero.

Come enjoy a day on the lake with your co-workers, friends, or family while helping protect your park and environment! Build a crew of 6-8 members and come aboard the OZ boat to travel to a cove where we will spend two hours removing litter.

Journey Essentials:

• be in good physical condition to perform the duties
• be at least 12 years or older (recommend 1 adult for every 4 children)
• bring a snack, and plenty of water
• dress for the weather, including a hat and sunscreen
• wear shoes that can get wet, but sturdy enough to hike short distances
• a sense of adventure!
