Missing a Quagga Mussel Sticker? We'll see you in court


Hey, do you think Ms Quagga Mussel Tattoos are next?

Ah, Lake County. The land of boats, trailers and Quagga Stickers.

And, of course, the perfect wake.

Say hello to procuring Quagga Mussel stickers prior to launching your boats.
Eager to take a stand against Ms Quagga Mussel, Lake County officials and the District Attorney have instituted the toughest Quagga Mussel ordinances in the country.

Don’t comply with the ordinance of placing stickers your boat and trailer; one of the biggest standing waves could be coming your way… “If found guilty, the alleged violators will face a total fine of $2,700, which includes a $1,000 fine and $1,700 in court fees.”

If you’re scratching your head over the these expensive fines, let us explain: once Ms Quagga Mussel enters your lake, basically a perestroika movement of epic proportion will destroy the beaches, kill your native fish, and destroy your water intake systems.

In addition to the fines, convicted boaters will also be charged with a misdemeanor, which stays on your record, and your neighbors will brand you with a Quagga tattoo. To read more:  www.record-bee.com/sports/ci_18102271
