*******************************************

This park has been underwater from the overflowing Missouri River since March.
Above is the lower flood level that I've seen it at this Spring. You can see some grass poking through the high water. However, with heavy rains continuing almost daily, there doesn't seem to be a lot of hope that the park will reopen this Summer. Plus maybe not even next Fall. The large park is normally very well used.

Widespread flooding continues in the Midwest.
