[brcs-announce] Boardman River Clean-Up

Tue Jun 7 17:46:50 PDT 2011

Hi Kyle,

The T-shirt order is a little late but there will be all those sizes available 
FCFS at the picnic.  It should work out ok.

The USCG helo fly over is a cool idea, too.  I'll tell everyone about it.

If they could get some shots of people actually working on the river, that would 
be really cool.  Those would be great for the website.

C-U there.

Norm

Norm,

We have a total of 11 participating at this point from the US Coast Guard.  6 
will be doing the downtown section, 5 at the Scheck's Landing (Shumsky to 
Beitner).  Our t-shirt sizes are:

1 XXL
3 L
5 M
2 S

Hope it's not too late for the t's, but if it is, no problem.  I've also put a 
request in for the helo to fly over the picnic area (1450 Cass Rd) between 1200 
and 1PM on Saturday.  If they don't get called for a SAR case, they should be 
able to do that for us!

Either way is fine.  Whatever their experience is should be deciding factor. 

I have the coordinates for Schecks but let's pass on that.

Flying two of those helos over would cost more than the whole project.

Maybe the USCG would like to sponsor the whole event some year.    We'll have to 
talk about that.  I don't know if I want to work for the government again.

Haha... I'll see if I can't arrange a couple of flyovers for Scheck's and 
Downtown locations.  Do you have a lat/long for the Scheck's Landing location? 

Regarding the extra 2:  not sure of their skill level yet, so they may be at 
either (do you have a preference for their location).

We want air support.

Will the extra 2 go upstream or downtown?

OK Kyle!

The food and T-shirts are free.  Just bring yourselves, boats, and PFD.  Water 
might be a good idea, too.  If you can find some grabbers bring them along.

Grabbers are the things little old ladies use to get stuff off the top shelf of 
the pantry.  You can find them in hardware stores.  They should be strong enough 
to pick up a full 2 liter bottle.

I will take a Large Coast Guard T-shirt if you can find one for me.

Look for the changes on the website.

And we'll talk about the SCUBA when I see you.

Norm,

We have 10 folks from Coast Guard Air Station Traverse City that will be 
participating in the clean-up on Saturday June 11th - 9AM.  

-- 5 members will participate in the downtown (lower Boardman) section, 
launching just north of the Boardman Lake by the library.  

-- 5 members will partake in the Schecks Landing section (experienced paddlers)

Please let me know if we need to bring anything other than kayaks, paddles, 
pfds, and ourselves (& transportation).  (ie: food for the picnic?  Or will it 
be provided?) 

Do our folks get T-shirts too... some of them were pretty excited about that?  
If not or you have limited numbers, no sweat at all.  Speaking of which, if 
you're interested in an Air Station T-shirt from our unit here, I can pick one 
up for you as well (as a thank you for your graciousness in asking us to help 
out! :)

** as a heads up, we already have some folks interested in helping 'dredge the 
river' via snorkeling or diving gear during your July clean-up!

Cheers,
LT Kyle Young

P.S.  I'll be out of the office until June 6th, but you can reach me at 
415-672-5267 if you have any questions or concerns.  I may be in touch the week 
of 6-10 June for some more planning questions.
