Greetings all- There have been a number of mumblings passing through the OH birding community this summer in regards to a very pertinent question about one of the no-less-then-top birding spots on the north shore of our state: what's going to happen to Lorain Impoundment? Does anyone have any solid info on the future of the site? I've heard casino, amphitheater, fill-in, nature preserve, and many other opinions and hear-say. Are there any Black River Audubon or Western Cuyahoga Audubon members, or any others that have solid, fact-based info on Lorain Impoundment? The site is simply spectacular as-is, but if it were to be protected and restored, it would elevate to mind-numbingly awesome. There are folks that are willing to raise funds to help ensure the impound's existance as a natural area.
