Grand Opening of BC Marine Trail Network
Blue Heron to Paddlefest at Ladysmith.
Sat 2011-May-14
0900 hr - Gerhardt to meet shuttle vehicle at PaddleFest
0930 hr - Meet at Blue Heron Park: Google Map
1000 hr - Be ready to launch from Blue Heron
1230 hr - Paddle 6.8 nautical miles to Dunsmuir Islands
1245 hr - Michael Pardy to give signal by VHF to leave Dunsmuir Islands.
What channel? 68?
1330 hr - Opening ceremony for BC Marine Trail network.
Landing spot will be south end of the beach where the stairs are (workshop area) and the boats will be hauled out and 'parked' on grass. There will be signs and people to direct the boats to the right grassy area.
There will also be access for people if they want to bring a vehicle down after the event is over to pick up their boats - so they won't have to haul them all the way up to the parking area. Some people will probably opt to do this - use 2 vehicles, one at launch site, one at Transfer Beach. Others may opt to just paddle back to launch site when the ceremony is done.
