Caden Fegel
Facilities Coordinator caden@lakemcmurtry.org “I have grown up in the Stillwater community for the past eight years and just recently graduated from Stillwater High School. I am now continuing my education at Oklahoma State University in pursuit of a degree in Finance. During my time in Stillwater, my family and I would frequently visit Lake McMurtry to kayak and camp. In 2020, I received the opportunity to join the Lake McMurtry Friends team and have enjoyed every moment of it since. I am excited to continue contributing to the lake and its mission and am grateful to be apart of such a dedicated community.”
