Saturday, August 2nd, from noon until 4, the Tri-County Powerboat Alliance will host its 12th annual Wolf River free brat fry fund-raiser, on the shores of the Wolf at Gills Landing, Weyauwega. Come by water or land to join the fun, music, food, raffles, corn and Hillshire brats at Gill’s Landing, located 5 miles up stream from Fremont or 3 ½ miles east of Weyauwega on Cty. F. As an added feature we also have a “Designated Navigator / Driver” program with free non-alcoholic beer. Plus a free boat shuttle service for boats that anchor out in the river.

The Tri-County Powerboat Alliance is a nonprofit organization dedicated to ensuring the waterways from New London to Lake Winnebago remain available for fair and equitable use by all recreational users. Emphasizing courtesy and safe fun for all, the TCPA works to build consensus with all the various users and philosophies of this beautiful water system.

This year on June 7th, the members held their annual river clean up, removing steel drums, various buckets, metal and garbage hazards from the Wolf River and it’s shores. With these fundraising efforts, they are able to hire barges to remove partially or fully submerged large trees, logs and deadheads from the main river channel, that are a danger to boaters.

The 100 plus member Alliance regularly conducts safe boater education classes, provides signs and other navigational aids, sponsors informational meetings, provides funds for dredging, shoreline riprap projects, building fish/wildlife protection zones and work with state/local government officials to protect the waterway and it’s natural resources. The funds raised from this event help with all these accomplishments.
