This is terrific!!  Thank you so much for organizing this.  Sherry

Hi Sue,

Thanks for putting this together.  Great idea.  I usually arrive early.  Could you give me an idea where at Winter Island Park we will be launching?  Thanks, Sherry 

I agree with Prudence.  Sherry 

I can't sign up - I can't click the HERE.  Any suggestions?  Thanks, Sherry

Thanks Janet, 

I am signed up and looking forward to paddling with everyone.  What time are we meeting?  Sherry 

Hi Rob,  Please sign me up - I would like to see a trip less than 15 nautical miles offered?? Sherry 

I took 2 mesh duffle bags with 4 stuck zippers used for salt water wet gear to my cleaner for new zippers - they were stuck with salt and I had done everything I could think of to fix them - washed them, etc.  My cleaner, who also could not move the zippers, said that he couldn't repair  the zippers because he did not have a machine which would do that heavy work but suggested I try to soak in fabric softener.  I did that twice and amazingly the zips are fixed!  Sherry 

Hi Joe,

Could you let me know if I am signed up for this?  I  think I signed up successfully.  Thanks, Sherry 

Thanks for posting this.  I plan to attend.  Sherry 

From Capt. Bill - this is such a loss!  Sherry 

Dear Old Quarry Enthusiasts,

I regret to inform you that after almost a year of trying my hardest to ensure that Old Quarry would stay open to the public in perpetuity, I have made a decision to sell it to a private landowner. 

As a result, I will have to cancel all upcoming reservations past July 31 and will promptly be providing you with a full refund. Reservations for the month of July remain as planned.

Thank you for your patronage. I will miss seeing all of your friendly faces and hope you all stay healthy and well. 

My best,

Capt Bill Baker 

Llangolan Inn will pick up food for guests from grocery store or restaurants etc.  Sherry 

Maine is requiring a PCR covid test - my local test site can do those tests but results could take up to 14 days.  Maine requires a negative test within 72 hours. How are people managing this?  Thanks!  Sherry 

Hi all - here are travel rules re MDI : https://www.visitbarharbor.com/travel-faq

Thanks for putting this trip together.  Could you let me know which charts we need?  Also what are the likely paddles like?  Thanks very much, Sherry V. smith 

Thank you so much Bob and Jo.  It is so kind of you to put this together - and putting out the schedule so early in the year makes it possible for me to  shift everything around the skill sessions.  This is perfect for me!  Sherry 

I will bring an Indian crustless potato pie.  Looking forward to seeing everyone!  Sherry 

Thanks so much for organizing this event.  For guide in addition to MITAs I recommend "AMC's Best Sea Kayaking in New England" by Michael Daugherty.

Hi Julia, Is it possible to send to you a check?  $25x 3 = $75 + 8.5x4= $ 34 total: $109 ?  do you know what that is in US dollars?  Thanks so much, Sherry

HI Julia,  I am definitely interested in joining and am open to any plan the group comes up with.  Hoping to also stay an extra few days and learn about the area.  Thanks so much for putting this together, this is so great!   Sherry. 

Could you give a bit more detail on where we park, unload and launch?  I have a map - It shows Church st. off of 127 at north end of harbor.  Do we park on the street or is there a parking lot?  Is there a public launch or beach?   Thanks, Sherry

HI Beth and David, could you PM me about this?  Thanks, Sherry V. Smith
