Snyder Spotlight on Lake Thomas and district plans
Si Freese and E. V. Spence of the Colorado River Municipal Water District say member cities are well supplied for years yet but growth could strain Snyder Big Spring and Odessa. They note Lake J B Thomas could top up surface water once rainfall returns to normal, with 25 to 30 million gallons daily when full. District directors toured the lake on the barge, seeing its extent at low level and potential for recreation funding via fishing and boating permits. Snyder Jaycees earned the Jake Award for public health projects and aim to launch another cleanup campaign this spring.
