The Squaw Creek Ditch Company is a private, shareholder-owned, non-profit corporation formed in 1896 and has irrigation water rights for 1,327 acres within the IDWR place of use also designated in 65-2379, 65-3043, and 65-3044 Snake River Basis Adjudication decrees.

2026 Important Dates

To all Shareholders.

The ditch water will be turned on Saturday, April 11th. Please note, it will take two days for the canal to fill completely and there may be debris in the water for about seven days.

On another subject. We need to postpone the canal tour and the grant project special meeting. We are in the process of getting pricing for piping a portion of the ditch instead of blasting. We will be writing up an additional grant request which is due June 1st.

Those two events will be put back on the calendar once we have complete project costs for your review.

Tour of Dam and Canal - 2025
To all Shareholders.

Now’s the time to check out the dam and Squaw Creek Ditch Company’s canal.

On Saturday, June 28th, John Avila and Bobby Porter will be available to take you on a walk to see our newly cleaned canal and the area that was fixed due to the mudslide last year.

For those of you who know where the dam is, they will meet you there at 10am. For those needing guidance, you can meet at John Avila’s property (9650 Sweet Ola Hwy).  Park at the bridge over the canal by 9:45am. He will lead you over to the dam entrance.

Hope to see you there.
