Goderich makes Lake Huron Forever Pledge

The Town of Goderich is the first Canadian community to have signed the Lake Huron Forever Pledge.

The Town announced this week it has joined the initiative, which spun off from the Great Lakes One Water Partnership.

"This pledge signifies our commitment to take action to protect Lake Huron’s water quality, preserve surrounding natural resources and engage community members in local conservation efforts now and forever," read a notice from the Town of Goderich.

The pledge was developed in consultation with Huron Pines, Community Foundation Grey Bruce, Sunset Community Foundation, Lake Huron Coastal Centre, Maitland Valley Conservation Authority and Town of Goderich Environment Committee.

So far, four Michigan municipalities have made the pledge: Alpena, Au Gres, Bay City and Oscoda Township.
