Racine's Blue Wave Beach:
Introduction |
Report Description:
Imagine our state's most pristine beaches. lakes in Northern Wisconsin or the Apostle Islands may come to mind. but what about Racine's North Beach? It used to be filled with scum, dangerous and too contaminated to swim in much of the time. What a turn-around. Swimmers and beach-combers are now back in droves and the Lake Michigan beach is nationally recognized for being clean and well managed. Racine's North Beach is a so-called "Blue Wave Beach." The only one in Wisconsin, and one of only 56 in the nation. Frederica Freyberg reports on how the city took back its beach.
