The boathouse is in need of some spring TLC, so this Saturday, April 22 from 9 am – noon, members and friends will be gathering at BCRC for a 1/2 day of boathouse clean out. We’ll be turning on the water, housekeeping, prepping boats, organizing equipment, and more for the upcoming season opener. Please come by and help out!
Items to bring:
- Gloves
- Rakes
- Shovels
- Work clothes (you don’t mind getting dirty)
- Sturdy shoes / work boots
- Wheelbarrow
- Tools (hand saws to cut up some wood that is on the shoreline)
- Cleaning products
Boathouse wishlist (we’re seeking these gently used items for the boathouse):
- Plastic bins to use to organize the cupboards, shelves and drawers (15 +)
- Sticky labels
- A large piece of carpet/rug to use to replace the carpet under the ergs
- A fan for the erg area – we have one but an upgrade would be nice
- Dry erase boards
- Cork/Tack boards
- Old tarp – we can dump old paint on it, let it dry and dispose of property
- Small square/rectangular pieces of flat wood – to repaint and create signs to better organize around the boathouse (1-3 sq. ft.)
- Trophy case – to create a place to display our history and treasures such as medals, uniforms, newspaper clipping
