Origins of Lake Village Water
Tracing its origins back to the late '60's, Lake Village Water Association was originally established to distribute high quality, potable water to rural areas of southeast Mercer County, northeast Boyle County, and select locations around the city of Burgin. Today, Lake Village Water Association continues to uphold the ideas of its founders by delivering quality water to every available household at the lowest possible cost.​
