Good Samaritan Saves The Day At Clark Canyon Dam

Saturday, June 22 a family was enjoying the cool water of Clark Canyon when the wind came up and pushed their three year old on a floatie into deeper water. The father tried to swim out to his child but was having trouble getting to the child. The mother called 911 as dispatch was coordinating the call. Charles Wharton was the first to reach the child and ensure her safety, David Peterson was next on scene and along with Eric Waldemar they were able to get the child into the boat, and bring her back to her parents.
