Voices For the Lake April 26, 2009

Voices For the Lake will be highlighting videos captured on our new YouTube kiosk and helping adult guests frame their stories about Lake Champlain. Do you have a favorite memory of Lake Champlain? Have you done something to make a difference for the health of Lake Champlain? Why is water important to you? Voices staff will be on hand to stimulate and to engage in conversation around Lake Champlain and waterways in Vermont. A collection of organizations will be present with opportunities for guests to get involved and make a difference in their community.
