Enid beaches to open April 1

Enid Lake maintains five designated swimming beaches, which are scheduled to open for use on April 1st.  Visitors to these beaches are required to pay a user fee or have an annual pass affixed to their vehicle.  
The fee for using one of these designated beaches is $5 per non-commercial vehicle per day, $20.00 per bus or commercial vehicle per day, and children under the age of 16 are admitted free.  When visiting these beaches we urge everyone to practice water safety.  
Each of these beaches is marked with orange buoys and everyone is required to stay within this designated area.  There is also a “Rescue Device Station” on each beach, which has a throw bag, a reach pole and instructions on proper use.  
These devices are to be used only for emergencies or for water safety demonstrations by rangers.  If anyone would like to practice with one of these devices, request the assistance of a ranger.  
The white depth marker poles located on the beaches are intended to give swimmers the approximate depth of the water in feet.
