Grand Lake St. Marys State Park has received a $10,984 marine patrol grant from the state to help local park officers get more patrol time on the lake. Above is the new West Bank boathouse. Patrol boats from the state park, the state's division of watercraft and the Mercer County Sheriff's Office will be housed there once it becomes operational in about a week.
