Lake Ramona opened to the public on July 4, 1968 after four years of construction. Built by William Abner "Bill" Waters and his family, using rebuilt and borrowed Pre-WWII tractors, over 100,000 board-feet of lumber was removed to clear the land needed for the lake.
In the future, a segment or separate page for Lake Ramona Memories is in the plan for the website. If you grew up in the area, or know someone who did, please have them contact us so that we can capture these memories for others to enjoy. We love being a part of the Hiram community! -- Lake Ramona
The pictures below were hanging in the ol' Bait & Tackle store for years. Some are penciled on with the date, some not. Do you know any of these people or the specific date/years? Please let us know, and while you are at it, send us your old snapshots!
