Enjoy the PEOPLE • CONSERVATION • RESOURCES season as a “leaf peeper” as you drive along our back roads. Jenna St. Clair, District Manager There’s a chill in the air, which gives me a chance to reflect on another wonderful summer. We kicked off the summer season with our annual Bear Creek Festival at Schuylkill County Fairgrounds. We were fortunate to again have beauti- ful weather for all of the activities offered: wagon rides, toma- hawk throwing, pony petting, live music, building wood crafts, potato digging, pH testing, cow milking… just to name a FEW! Mark your calendar for next year’s festival on June 7, 2020. July brought the Schuylkill County Fair where “Porcupine Pat” hosted a full line-up of education programs at the Weston Pavilion by the Dr. James S. Shadle Nature Center. Visitors had the chance to learn about wildlife, insects, and plants while enjoying all of the wonderful fair food and attrac- tions. In August, we partnered with the Schuylkill Chamber of Commerce’s Agribusiness Committee for the first annual Schuylkill County Pour Tour. Participants were taken “from farm to glass” on private tours of Yuengling Brewery and Stone Mountain Winery. We got an intimate look at the ingredients and processes that go into the production of our favorite beverages. I welcome your thoughts, ideas, concerns, and questions about the Schuylkill Conserva- tion District and can be reached at (570) 622-3742 x3335 and [email protected].

  • May/June 1986 800 BOIT Pennsylvania
    WHY REGISTER NON POWERED BOATS? page 26 May/June 1986 800 BOIT Pennsylvania The Keystone State's Official Boating Magazine Recently I received a call from a large city agency advising that it was considering charging a fee to launch from its boat ramp. The fee discussed was $3 to $5 per launch. A county park system that operates a small lake charges $5 per year to launch — $7.50 if you're not a county resident. For the current annual fee of $4 to $6 if your boat is 16 feet or over, you can launch at some 190 Fish Commission ramps and countless other ramps owned or operated by state and local agencies. For owners of unpowered boats, you can launch free ($5 launch permit for state park ramps). In addition, you get a bit of boating safety education, the protection of the law, and some pretty good representation in Harrisburg. Sounds like a lot of bang for the buck. All these services for the cost of a small registration fee, of course, is not entirely true. The state marine fuel tax and the HOUSE BILL 2157 federal Wallop/ Breaux money, derived primarily from the federal marine fuel tax, provide considerable income to the Boat Fund. These three sources — boat registration fees, state marine fuel tax, and federal marine fuel tax — provide almost all the Boat Fund income. Note that all the income is derived from motorboats, and because the larger boats use more fuel, the larger the boat the greater the contribution. House bill 2157 has been introduced and is now wending its way through the legislative system.
