White Lake water is suffering from hopefully, just a mild, temporary case of the hiccups. White Lake is a great place to live, to visit and very important to all residents of the county.

Town officials are doing all in their power to ‘treat the patient’.
Water Festival is coming soon, May 18 and 19.
