[HollyMutual-Announce] System Activation

[Holly Mutual Water Company]

All:

Dave from CWW brought his new custom key and was able to close the
valve. He powered up the wells and there is no longer any sign of a
leak. We're cautiously leaving the wells on 24/7 and hopefully we're
good to go with Holly Mutual water for this year. I guess we still made
it by April 16th.

Cheers,
Mark
