I’m fun to have around, but I cause problems near the shoreline. Keep the party in the play zone – the deep water. It’s more fun out there anyway.
Go Deeper
Welcome to beautiful
Kalamalka Lake & Wood Lake.
Nice, aren’t they? Everyone’s having a great time. Birds are tweeting happily. Fish are leaping in the sunshine. And the water is clear, blue and lovely.
Uh oh, here comes a wake boat in the shallow area.
What’s the worst that could happen?
I damage wildlife habitats.
Nesting areas along the shoreline can be obliterated by boat wake like me. Baby duckies need your help.
I pollute drinking water.
Near a clean water intake, I make a murky mess, turning clear, fresh drinking water into gross polluted water. Ick. Keep your boat in deep water.
I don’t play well with others.
We can all help keep each other safe by sticking to the parts of the lake that are best suited to our fun – wake waves are best in the deep. While paddling and swimming stick to the shallow.
If you love the lake,
take care of it.
Careful boating will keep the water fun for everyone and everything. It’s not that hard. Stick to water deeper than 30 ft and have a great time.
BONUS: Your wake only gets better in deeper waters!
