Woodcock Creek Lake celebrates Golden Jubilee
Community leaders, Corps of Engineers employees and members of the public gather on a summer morning to celebrate Woodcock Creek Dam’s 50th anniversary in Saegertown, Pennsylvania, July 14, 2023. The corps built Woodcock Creek Dam to reduce floods along the French Creek, saving communities such as Saegertown and Meadville from catastrophic flooding year after year and has prevented more than $38 million in flood damages since its construction in 1973.
