Webster Lake Ice is NOT Safe


The Webster Police Departments reminds you that the ice on Webster Lake is not safe and advises against venturing onto the ice.

As Webster Lake is a spring fed lake, significant variation in ice thickness can potentially occur with little or no warning. As such, The Webster Police Department will never advise that the ice on Webster Lake is safe for any activities.

In the event you should witness an ice related emergency such as a person or animal falling through the ice, contact the Webster Police Department immediately via 911.

DO NOT under any circumstances attempt to reach and rescue the person or animal as there is strong likelihood the surrounding ice has been compromised and you could also become a victim. Seconds count with near freezing water temperatures, so please request emergency assistance immediately.

The Webster Police Department advises anyone who does venture out onto the ice on Webster Lake that they are doing so at their own risk and do exercise extreme caution and common sense. The operation of or parking of any motor vehicle on the ice on Webster Lake is also prohibted by law.
