Our Source Water
The Kennebec Water District has used China Lake as its source of supply since 1905. China lake, covering an area of 6.1 square miles and a maximum depth of 85 feet, holds about 31.7 billion gallons of fresh water at any given time and provides more than enough capacity year around. The intake is in the West Basin of the lake which is largely undeveloped due to the Kennebec Water District’s management of these lands for over 100 years. Click below to find out more.

Staying hydrated helps athletes stay focused, energized, and ready throughout practices and games.
A good reminder for game days:
• Drink water before heading to the field
• Keep sipping throughout the game
• Rehydrate after the final inning
Many athletes may need:
• 16-20 oz. of water a few hours before activity
• 7-10 oz. every 10-20 minutes during activity
• Extra water afterward to help recover.
A water bottle might be one of the most important pieces of gear in the bag this season.
