Did you notice the increased patrol presence on the lake this July 4th? We certainly did and have to say "thank you" to the Coast Guard auxiliary and the Louisa County Sheriff's Department for being out there in a visible way.This is new for the Sheriff's deparment thanks to addition of three jet-ski's to their patrol, one donated by Anna Point Marina. For the first time in a long time, we didn't go a day without seeing someone having a "chat" with local water patrols.
As much as that might be a pain for the jet-skier without his vest or the boat operator who's clearly had a few too many beers, this noticeable water presence will make Lake Anna safer for all of us and for that we again say "thanks".
WCAV did a story on the holiday patrols and you can watch it here.
