Volunteers are being sought to spend a few hours cleaning up the inlets and shorelines of Lake Adger. If you've ever had the pleasure of fishing the lake — one of Western North Carolina’s best kept secrets — you've probably been struck by the contrast between the beautiful scenery of this mountain lake and the ugliness of the litter along its shore.

If you’d like to join in the fun and volunteer to restore Lake Adger’s beauty, meet at the Red Barn Boat Launch at 10 a.m. to recieve instructions and trash bags. Boat launching will be free.
