Lake Burr Oak Begins to Form After Rainfall
A light rain over Glouster and nearby watersheds started filling Burr Oak Dam area. About 0.75 inches fell, with U.S. and Ohio officials credited for securing funding. Rep. Thomas A. Jenkins helped secure roughly 2.8 million dollars for construction, while State Sen. Stanley Mechem and Dr. F. E. LeFever led Ohio’s 800 thousand dollar share effort. The dam now progresses toward conservation pool as land-title hurdles are resolved.
