According to an article in the September 24 edition of the Ames Tribune, the water level at Little Wall Lake is within six to seven inches of what is considered full. A bait and tackle shop has reopened and is renting paddleboats and rowboats. Construction crews finished dredging the north lake and next year the county will reinstall the boat dock and build a handicap accessible fishing jetty and cleaning station.
The Little Wall lake Homeowners Association raised more than half of the $40,000 needed to restore the lake's water levels after it was drained over four feet by a dredging mistake. As you may recall, CIWGA donated the profits from our plant sale to this restoration project. Our congratulations to the Homeowners Association for their successful efforts in this endeavor!
