Our local business and residents are greatly affected by a lack of an adequate volume of water in the lake to let people enjoy it in the way it was meant.
Recreation, fishing, property values are driving us to get public involvement and the funds necessary to drive change in the management of the lake and its water levels.
We intend to call all applicable state and federal entities including our elected officials.
We can do it alone, we need your involvement.

Of twenty-three boat ramps on Canyon Lake, Boat Ramp 18 was the final open for public use. As of last week, it is now shut down.
"We only had about 13 feet of concrete left in the water which is not long enough to launch any trailer of any real size," says Mike Dussere. Dussere is the General Manager of the Water Oriented Recreation District (WORD) of Comal County.

Boat ramp 18 in Canyon Park reached its listed low water closure elevation of 883 feet on October 18th. Since that time, we have monitored daily ramp conditions and remaining concrete ramp area.
Recognizing that this was the last open boat ramp, we left it accessible with a warning that it was use at your own risk and extreme caution advised.
At this time, we have made the difficult decision to close the ramp completely effective November 1st, as we do not believe it will be safe to use for launching any watercraft
