(KLZA)-- Big Lake State Park is scheduled to reopen for day-use  this weekend. 

The picnic area, Boy Scout Island and the boat ramp along with the playground will be open to visitors. 

The park has been closed since the flood that occurred in 2019.  

Park Manger Mark Kunkel told the Mound City News that when the camp grounds open back up depends on  when repairs to the sewer system is repaired. Financing to make the repairs must be secured.
