Hi Everyone,
This coming Monday, July 11th, we will continue painting the Coos County Parks. We will meet at 12:00 noon at the Coquille Boat Ramp. We will start painting there, then go to Wallace Dement Park and paint, and then go to Arago Boat Ramp to finish up the day.
To get to Coquille Boat Ramp from Bandon:
take Hwy 42S to Fishtrap Road which is just after the 16 mile marker, and just before the big bridge over the Coquille River (near the DMV and Hwy 42).
Turn left on Fishtrap, go under the big bridge---the boat ramp will be on your left just past some houses. It's about 1/2 mile from where you turned onto Fishtrap Rd.
If anyone would like to carpool or caravan, meet me at the north end of the Ray's parking lot by Bree's by 11:30. Please let me know if you're coming so I don't leave you. :)
My phone is 541-347-4643 and the cell is 541-297-6118.
Thanks.
Ava
