Barber County State Lake cleanup planned for April 26
By Tammy Lonker
The Gyp Hill Premiere
The Medicine Lodge Lions Club is planning a cleanup day for the walking trail at the Barber County State Lake on Saturday, April 26, 2025 from 10am-12pm. Several organizations will be assisting the Lions Club.
The area has always been maintained by volunteers. Last year the Lions Club took on the project in order to make the area a continued place for people to enjoy the beauty of the lake. "This is the 2nd annual trail clean up,” Lions Club Member Steve Probst stated.” The Lions Club plans for this to be an annual event."
Anyone wishing to help with the project is welcome to participate. Volunteers are asked to meet on the west side of the lake in the restroom area and are encouraged to bring work and/or plastic gloves to wear. The primary focus of the day is trail maintenance, which includes, picking up trash, clearing logs, weed eating, mowing, spreading mulch, etcetera. The goal is to make the trail around the lake easily accessible for the public to use.
Announcements will be made on the Official What’s Going on in Medicine Lodge Facebook page leading up to the event. In the event of inclement weather, a secondary date will be posted there.
