Can I fish in lakes on PWC property?
PWC owns and manages 4 lakes in the Little Cross Creek Watershed. Fishing is only allowed with restrictions on Glenville Lake. Fishing is only allowed from a pier at Mazerick Park. Fishing from the bank is not allowed. The restrictions are in place for several reasons. The PWC owned lakes are a vital source of drinking water for our community. It is necessary to restrict access for security reasons as well as to ensure good water quality. The lakes and surrounding woodlands are environmentally sensitive areas that must be kept free of human disturbance. The woodland and riparian vegetation along the shoreline of the lakes act as a filtering buffer for pollution. Fishing from the bank disturbs this buffer and degrades water quality.

Where is the PWC Farm located?

What does PWC do with the crops grown at their farm?
Hay is sold to the public to be used to feed livestock (cows, horses, goats). Crops grown at the farm are sold to local grain markets (wheat, corn, grain sorghum, soybeans). The grain market sells to vendors who make livestock feed out of the grains. To learn more about the farm, click here.
