Boathouse Activity Heats Up as the Weather Cools Down
As the sweltering summer weather gives way to
cooler, dryer fall days, JGTSCA members are re-energized as
they tackle a variety of projects in the boathouse. During
a recent Friday night session, the boathouse was a beehive
of activity.
Rob Pittaway and Wil Iturrino worked diligently attaching
oar leathers to several new sets of oars. George Spragg was
adding the covering to his wooden canoe. Russell Smith and
Bob Reed were busy performing maintenance on the club dories.
Andy Strode, Sandy D’Esopo, and John Hacunda worked
on the new skiff. Bill Armitage and Paul Robertson were planing
wood in preparation for the next boat project.
