Thanks for getting signs off the lake

I would like to extend a sincere thank you to the guys at Med City Hovercraft. They were out on Albert Lea Lake last week with their hovercrafts and picked up all of the thin-ice signs that Freeborn County and the Shell Rock River Watershed District put out around the aerators. This saved hours of staff time searching for the signs after ice-out. The signs can get damaged by the ice at break up and some might never be found. This group should be commended for their efforts. 

Thank you.
