Chu Cho Industries had a successful season prior to the excessive rain and high water on the reservoir. The water came up extremely fast in the second half of June, pushing crews off the beach. This is our second successful year getting grass to grow on the beaches and managed to implement some new optional tactics to increase ground coverage and efficiencies. We had some new employees this year, with several being ticketed in First Aid Level 3. Employees started a practice session to help increase our First Aid skillset and confidence in attendants.
