We Need Your Support
You can help is prevent the needless deaths of loons due to lead toxicity by lending your support to our campaign. Our goals are firstly, to make anglers and their families aware of the dangers of using lead fishing tackle and secondly, to petition the government to ban the use of lead tackle altogether.
How to Support Us
- Encourage your customers/members/friends to bring in their lead tackle to our McKellar Market booth and the McKellar Public Library in exchange for an MLCA-funded coupon for purchasing non-lead tackle at supporting retailers.
- Allow us to print the name of your organization on our poster, brochure and other campaign advertising as a supporter of the campaign.
- Put up a “Get the Lead Out” poster and have brochures for the campaign available - if you are able to do so.
- Email the Fact Sheet associated with this campaign to your Association members to help them learn about this serious issue.
- Encourage local retailers to carry more lead-free fishing tackle.
