Dinghy Dock Demolition Party | Sept 26

Dinghy Dock Demolition Derby
Current plan is to float the old docks over to the shore at high tide the evening of September 25, and secure them there. The morning of September 26 we will have a festival of destruction to put the remnants into a large dumpster stationed near the shore. Do not wear your fancy dress clothes to this event! We will get to see plenty of marine life clinging to the plastic under the floatation foam and the well-aged wood also has acquired some extra coatings. Many hands should make this process proceed apace, and we will be able to enjoy a more sightly E dock. To join the Saturday work party, Sign up. And thank you!
