Lake Belva Deer Expecting Large Crowds For 4th of July

The Fourth of July weekend has always been a popular weekend for fishing, boating, and swimming. Dave Long with the Keokuk County Conservation Board says this year is no exception. He says Belva Deer Recreation Area outside Sigourney has seen a high number of visitors due to the nice weather and upcoming holiday. Long says the lake always hosts a great deal of visitors around this time, and even heavy road construction was not enough to deter patrons this year.
