Lake Vine
My favorite place for water sports is Lake vine, but it has only existed since
1975 when the valley was filled with water to provide electricity. Under the
water is the village Venture. Last week I talked to Pat smothers, who runs a
shop on the edge of the lake and looks after the huge car park. She gets up
early to travel to her shop to sell newspapers and food and doesn’t finish work
till late because of the car park. She said drowning the village was the best
thing that ever happened as it brought, a lot of business to the area, and the
number of visitors from all over the country continues to increase, especially
as there is a new road which means it is easier to get to. When I asked people
enjoying the water sports, they said they never thought about the drowned
houses and streets. When I spoke to some people sitting in the café
overlooking the lake, I was surprised to find they still get angry about what
happened .They used to live in Venture and were moved to other places in the
area, among them thirty children who are now middle-aged, but they still miss
the village. They say that nobody asked them what they wanted-they were
told one day that everything was decided. They were separated from their
friends and had to get buses to new schools instead of walking there together
.It is a shame that these people lost their homes, and I hope something similar
never happens again in the future. I would miss the water sports if they
weren’t there, however, and I must say that hadn’t ever thought about what
was under the water until last week.
