Quick update on ACR water status

Hello all:
Right now we have a broken water pipe between the Pavilion and Granddad’s cabin. Also, the water heater was left on and empty so it is broken. We are working on getting these items fixed promptly. The restroom is still usable but you must fill the water tank yourself before you flush and no water to granddad cabin’s or inside the pavilion until the line is fixed. Water is available through the spigots.
Thanks for your patience,
jbk
