It is sad indeed, I don't think I've seen this many drownings in a year on Beaver, but I've only been here 5 years.

Mike, the man who drowned, was 34, married with two young girls, and taught industrial skills at the high school in Eureka. Several of his students won stat4e competitions and qualified for nationals where they placed.

Tragic summer down there. I'll be on Beaver with my boat in a couple of weeks. I never jump off the boat and swim without something I can float on. It's not always a PFD, which is dumb, but at least it's something to hang on to.

The heat has put more people on Beaver this year than I have seen before not suprised the numbers are up. If she keeps dropping there will be more accidents and boats tore up, people dod not understand how many rocks and pole timber are in the lake that will be invisable but in a possition to do damage soon.

You guys should try and traverse Smithville Lake up here. It's only 800 surface acres smaller Pomme but you wouldn't know it.
