“The parking area for crew at both locations needs to be kept clear, as does the slipway at Ned's. If you're launching a small craft at Ned's, please do so in a timely manner and store your trailer accordingly. It must not be left on the slipway.

This is a busy time of year for the volunteer crew, and a delayed launch could prove fatal.
