LTL - I found this last night when doing some research on Sand Island. I to think the HOBOs should join forces with LAKE Magazine, APCO, Russell Lands and Mr Dobbs and others in a concerted effort to save a cherished landmark of Lake Martin.

While the HOBOs right now do not have the financial resources to support such an undertaking, we sure can supply some labor and make phones calls. Is that not what it is all about fostering long term relations for the preservation of the lake and this would be a great project to foster relationships with other potential HOBO members, other lake organizations and businesses.

SAVE SAND ISLAND

Boats zoom by. Waves constantly beat its shore. And as a result, one of Lake Martin’s most recognizable landmarks, Sand Island, is quickly sinking. We think that’s a shame and we want to do something about it. LAKE Magazine has teamed up with Russell Lands and Alabama Power Co. to help save Sand Island. We’re in the planning stages, but we’ve already enlisted a number of companies to help. The plan is to build a seawall around the island, which will take some creative effort (like hauling tons of materials out there). We’ll need materials, labor and funding. If you’re interested in helping, please give us a call at (256) 234-4281 x24.
