WOW did January 1st surprise us with a low
temperature reading of -14.50 degrees and high for the day only reached 12.60. Penrose
also has been the recipient of welcomed SNOW
In our area. However, it only equated to .50 of an inch of precipitation.
We are expected to receive more snow towards the end of the month which we will
be grateful for.
The relining of the upper ditch project is progressing
with a total of 630 feet completed and an additional 200 ft. scheduled to be
completed by the end of the month. This project is completely funded by Grant
Money awarded to us.
Unfortunately we are unable to run water in the upper
ditch during the relining project and we have been distributing water to
Penrose Water District directly from Brush Hollow. Currently Brush Hollow only
has 79 ft. and no additional water is being supplemented at this time. A
decision will be made soon when the relining project will end for the year.
It is almost that time again….our Shareholders Annual

that those shares could be paid up at the last moment and not auctioned. An
announcement will be made that will enhance the stability in Beaver Park
