Lake Delton in Wisconsin - Gone.

Lake Delton. Pride of the Wisconsin Dells. Home to the Tommy Bartlett Water Show and The Ducks. World Renown. Vacation Paradise.

June 2008. Breached. Lake Delton draining into the Wisconsin River. The 250-acre Lake Delton is right next to the Wisconsin Dells, a big tourist destination in central Wisconsin. Governor Doyle promises that the lake will be re-filled.

Lake Delton - gone. AND, the Village of Lake Delton opted to decline participate in a floodplain insurance program offered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Means FEMA may or may not declare it a disaster area - and Lake Delton may or may not get federal aid.
