Multiple Drownings Lead to Closure of Michigan Campground Lake
TL;DR
The lake at Monroe County KOA Campground in Michigan is being permanently closed and drained after multiple drowning incidents, including the recent death of an 18-year-old. The father of a near-drowning survivor, who has been advocating for safety measures, expressed relief at the decision. The closure comes as the campground faces a civil lawsuit. The father hopes the campground will either install a pool with lifeguards or expand the campgrounds in place of the lake.
