The Conservancy employees have been busy recently with numerous landscaping projects. The entrance to the Conservancy office looks much better with new landscaping gravel. Lots of work at Sweetwater Beach with new playground equipment and new rip rap on the points at each end of the beach. Extra grading work at the launch ramp. All looks good!

HIGH WATER!
A couple of severe rains in the past couple of weeks have closed the lakes due to high water levels. Four inches of rain this past Friday and Saturday have put Cordry on "Yellow" and Sweetwater on "Red."

GLOBAL WARMING!
For the first time since the beginning of Cordry and Sweetwater Lakes, the main bodies of both lakes failed to freeze over. In recent years, we enjoyed ice fishing, hiking, skating,
and snowmobiling, on the lakes. It was also interesting to hear the ice "cracking" as it expanded and contracted. Friends tell me that Sweetwater froze over to a thickness of 3 feet in 1978. (Year of the '78 Blizzard)
MARCH SNOW
We all enjoyed the warmest February on record. March in Indiana always holds some surprises! We rose today to rooftops and grass covered with a surprise snow!
