National fishingsafe boating week Governor Michael O. Leavitt has declared June Utah Safe Boating week. June 1 also is National Fishing Week. The Bureau of Land 5-1- 1 Management invites an- glers to get out their fishing poles and enjoy the outdoors. Camping is free at all BLM campgrounds in Utah on Saturday, June 11. Its just our way of cele- brating National Fishing Week and cooperating with the other resource agencies and private sportsmen clubs working to promote the joy of fishing, said BLM State boating cannot be emphasized too much, said Ted Woolley, boating coordinator with the Utah Division of Parks and Recreation. This is particularly true as fatigue caused by sun, glare, noise, wind, and boat motion intensifies the effects of alcohol. Having a designated driver and designated first mate on board a boat where alcohol is being consumed is a must. Our rangers will continue to watch very closely for boaters who are operating under the influence, Woolley said. The nickname of the Force football team is The Falcons.
