Should have been done at least 2 months ago!

The marina doesn't open until May 15th. 

If they dredged it 2 months ago, chances are it will start to fill back in 2 months earlier, causing the marina to close earlier than Oct 15th.  Be careful what you ask for. You may get it.

Sturgeon Point Boat Ramp, One trailer, small boat out today Sand Bar is open at the end, small boat out. A large tire dump truck is parked doing nothing, but no excavator to load the truck is on site.

With all the sales taxes, fuel taxes, registration fees paid by boaters, the "rinky dinky town of Evans". That is where our money goes anyway. should turn over operation to the state Parks or County parks.

There are a lot of boating users are not fishermen. They do not contribute action but take up space for launches and parking. They use the lake for swimming, sunning, diving or just traveling around for recreation. Visiting restaurants, dinner and just escaping hot summer days. They need to be organized to have an effect on our Governor, Senators, Assembly Persons. Also the restaurant busunesses should be involved. The fishing contests are not enough to attract them. Speak this up.

The failure to have state action is from not having political power as a member there. Aother failure is not having an alliance with regular boating members who are not contest fishing members. Many boat fishing operators do not join or resent having the cash fishing interests in charge .
