The Jackson Parish Watershed Commission and the Village of Chatham are pleased to announce that Chatham Lake has received much needed improvements to the boat launch and public parking areas thanks to a Jonesboro State Bank Pledge 10 Grant. 

All visitors to the lake can now park on the much needed gravel when visiting the picnic area and fishing spot at the spillway. The boat launch ramp also got a much needed make over as well filling in several pot holes.

“Everyone come check out the improvements to the Chatham Lake thanks to JSB Pledge 10,” said JPWC President Gary Joynor. “Take some time to enjoy a picnic, do some grilling, enjoy scenic lake views and great bank fishing.”
