In July of 2017, WWA’s Wausau Chapter, lead by volunteer Melanie Love, successfully adopted the George W. Mead Wildlife Area. Mead is located five miles north of Highway 10 between Stevens Point and Marshfield. The property extends into Marathon, Wood and Portage counties. While project plans for the site are still ongoing the chapter’s agreement with the WDNR calls for with volunteers keeping the parking lots clean, maintaining gates, signage and other infrastructures, invasive species control of buckthorn and trail maintenance.
