The Major League Fishing pros will participate in a conservation event Monday at the Massena Intake Boat Launch – the Johnson Outdoors Clean Earth Challenge. The MLF pros will spend their time collecting trash and debris from the boat launch and surrounding areas, with a post-clean up weigh-in taking place to determine how much trash and debris was collected during the challenge.

WHEN:

Monday, Aug. 5, 4-5 p.m.

WHERE:

Massena Intake Boat Launch, 1415 State Highway 131, Massena, New York

NOTES:
The National Wildlife Federation and Johnson Outdoors teamed up to launch the Clean Earth Challenge in 2022 to inspire people to get outdoors and take simple conservation actions to help preserve and restore the outdoor spaces we all love. Johnson Outdoors is calling on all fellow outdoor enthusiasts to get involved by collecting trash and helping to reach the goal of removing 10 million pieces of litter from the great outdoors.

In addition to the pros, staff at MLF Headquarters in Benton, Kentucky, will also participate in the challenge, collecting trash and debris from the Kentucky Dam Marina.

Johnson Outdoors, a longstanding partner of MLF and the premier outdoor recreation company that designs, manufactures, and markets a portfolio of winning, consumer-preferred brands, including Minn Kota and Humminbird, will serve as the title and presenting sponsor for the Bass Pro Tour event at the St. Lawrence River.
