Grand Glaize Beach – also known as Public Beach Number 2 – in Lake of the Ozarks State Park has been reopened to swimmers. Water samples taken Monday showed bacteria levels well below the department’s acceptable levels for state park beaches, according to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources. State Parks Director Bill Bryan says “The public is becoming very familiar with our website and the beach status information posted on the web, so it was no surprise that when our park staff arrived to reopen the beach they were met by 20 swimmers who had already checked the website and were ready to go swimming.” Grand Glaize has been closed on and off for most of the summer, due to high levels of E. coli.
