Cleaning Lake Bourget: mission accomplished!

And voilà!

Saturday morning, from 8:30 am, the esplanade of the Lac du Bourget aquarium, at the small port of Aix-les-Bains, came alive: we were a
fifty to go hunting for waste, including ten in the water.

Around half past twelve, before enjoying the bougna, a traditional Kanak dish, we brought our garbage bags in front of the aquarium.

No less than thirty 100-liter bags, complete with a chair, a tire and a bicycle, were picked up in the
Sierroz, le Tillet, and between Le Bourget-du-Lac and Bourdeau.

The aquatic team in fins, masks and snorkels, led by Deeper Blue, also made surprising discoveries near the beach of
Rowing, in Aix-les-Bains and along the Aix esplanade. Tracked and
accompanied by two boats from the boaters' club, we scrutinized
the lake bottoms up to about five meters deep.

Oar, concrete block, iron barrier, construction cone, but also a very large number of bottles and cans, not to mention dozens of cigarette butts,
plastic spoons used to eat ice cream and piles are
come to fill the divers' bags.

At XNUMX p.m., the bougna rewarded all the participants, determined to renew the operation the year
next. Hoping to be more divers, and why not in diving suits and PMT, this time?
