But their opposition hasn't even phased Marshall Metro Rotary Club members.

Club president Walter Fugler said Monday Metro members have raised slightly more than $5,000 for the project and they are applying for a $25,000 Entergy Power grant.

The club has offered to finance the relocation of a sewer main so the city can create a fishing lake. Local businessman Ken Carlile has offered to lend a bulldozer for the project.
