Remembering the Flood of 2008 - A Family Business Perspective By: Sara Lipke Harbor Recreation www.harborrec.com 608.884.6007 a DOTR Biz Partner
The year of 2008 was a trying one to say the least. Not only has our community suffered economic loss, Newville, Rock County, Southern Wisconsin and many other locations in our state endured a flood like no other in documented history.
Harbor Recreation’s story of the flood of 2008 actually began in August of 2007. Rock River and Lake Koshkonong experienced an unusual flood during a time that our river and lake are thirsty for water and low water levels create a problem for fisherman and boaters in this area. Many people had to cut their season short because the water did not recede until after Labor Day 2007. |
