 Well, boaters beware as today kicks off an annual nationwide campaign to deter boaters from operating their water crafts under the influence of alcohol and drugs. Operation Dry Water is a boating while intoxicated awareness and enforcement campaign that runs the weekend before the 4th of July. The Sheriff's Office works with the DNR during the campaign and both departments will be on duty this weekend. Last year Operation Dry Water made over 500 arrests nationwide. Tell people where you're going, make sure you follow the rules of the road. If you don't know the rules of the road or the rules of the lake, take the time to look them up. You can look up any of the information online through the DNR and just be patient. We've got some areas that boat traffic is going to be congested, much like a highway. So everyone be patient and make sure you have a solar operator for your water craft. With Independence Day falling on a Wednesday this year, there will be a heightened sense of concerning BWIs all week long.
