Sunday at the pond

Very nice facility!
Congratulations on acquiring & maintaining such a nice spot.
Our club is lucky to have a very solid relationship with the City of Edina, here in Minnesota.
We are allowed to use the Centennial Lakes Ponds, and have access to a storage cage on-site for our equipment.
Being a City Park, and a space we share with the park's paddleboats, we cannot set up permanent piers as you have. But that would most certainly be nice!

So far my collection resembles "The Island of Misfit Toys". I've picked up several boats that are old builds and have been neglected. I'm giving them the TLC they need, hoping to bring them back to their former glory. Once I get enough practice/ experience I intend to take on a full build.

Just north of Doncaster. Nice, used to live in Rotherham and then Sheffield. Went to Hatfield to paddle with Greenstar canoe club, travelled all over the north of England and occasionally further afield for competitions. My boating is now solely models but we are a bit far away to join in with you as we live on the Wirral now.
Happy boating

Water, luxury!
The lake I sail on (Lake Mendota about 100 miles west of Chicago) is still frozen.
Nice boats.
I always thought that lifeboats make good subjects.

1st Sunday at the pond with bacon butties sold, lovely clear fresh day, water levels at normal after being flooded out. No docks or pontoons in place yet but plans are afoot for the next few weeks. Here are some shots of our day
