Friends Of Waterbury Reservoir

We welcomed summer with a high-water event causing temporary closure of some state park facilities around the reservoir, tornado warnings, and a blistering few days of uncomfortable heat and humidity.

Summer is almost here and the Waterbury Reservoir is beginning to burst with activity! People are swimming, paddling, fishing, and boating, and the wildlife and birds are coming back in great numbers.

This spring, it seemed as though the ice would never leave, and that our cold winter would linger into May.
