A project in Shoal Lake is one of three to receive funding from a new grant program through Sunrise Credit Union.
The Shoal Lake Aeration Project hopes to revitalize the lake by adding an aeration system to help alleviate excessive algae growth over the past few years.
Organized by the For the Love of Shoal Lake organization, the project not only aims to protect its ecosystems in the lake but also return Shoal Lake as a popular destination for anglers.
The project will receive $15,000 from Sunrise through its Building Communities Grant Program, which was first announced last month.
Community betterment is the goal of the grant program, which will have two application intake periods per year.
Other projects being funded in this initial intake are the Holland Outdoor Arena and the Elkhorn Ice Plant project.
