On may 27, 2018 I lost my 13 year old son to the  Chippewa creek. 

Right now there are no warnings of a low head dam at this creek. There is nothing to keep you from danger.

We want a fence around the dam and warning signs of a dam 150’ in each direction. 

We hope to just start here in rittman. I’d love to see changes along all low head dams! 

My son was just being a teenage boy. He didn’t do anything wrong here! It might be too late for our Gavin but, we want change! It doesn’t have to be too late for the next child! Please help us make something good out of something so tragic!
