The Horlick Park boat launch in Racine is being redesigned following the removal of the Horlick Dam. Root-Pike Watershed Initiative Network secured a grant to design a new launch with surrounding native vegetation. The launch design will be completed by Hey and Associates and improve access for paddlers and fishermen, enhance habitat, and support outdoor recreation. Community input from 2 public meetings will shape the design. The first meeting will be pre-design, the second will be at the 60% mark. Meetings are free. If you can't attend, please send questions/comments to info@rootpikewin.org. |
