Mayor Michael Preedin and Mary Sokol Chavin cut a piece of ribbon at the dedication of Sisters’ Well No. 4 on Friday, to give to Chavin’s sister Cris Converse, who was unable to attend the ceremony. The Sokol family effectively donated the value of municipal water rights they controlled to the City of Sisters in 2017, making the construction of Well No. 4 possible years ahead of schedule.
