Letter to the editor: Boaters grateful for timely boating access at reservoir

It’s time for a long overdue thank you to all the people and agencies for getting boating access to the Jamestown Reservoir last summer in as timely a fashion as safely possible. This was a combined effort with the following agencies participating: Army Corps of Engineers, Bureau of Reclamation, the Stutsman County Park Board, North Dakota Game and Fish Department, Stutsman County Sheriff’s Department, Noel Johnson, Stutsman County Commission and Jerry Bergquist, emergency manager of Stutsman County. These people and agencies did a tremendous job in all the flood-related work last spring and summer and should know their efforts were greatly appreciated by all.

If we have forgotten anyone else who aided in these efforts please accept our apologies and thanks for a job well done.

Once again a big thank you from the boaters of the area for getting access to the lake in as timely a fashion as possible.
