Lloyd Park boaters could be beached this summer

Barring significant rainfall, the Lloyd Park boat ramp in Winnetka could be closed this boating season due to the low water level and sand accumulation, park officials said recently.

The water near the ramp must be at least three feet deep for the Park District to allow boat launching. If the ramp is closed, boaters would be forced to take their vessels north to Waukegan or consider other closer, but more costly options, such as Lake Forest.
