Lake Minnetonka Clean Up Day – 13 June 0730, Bayside Grill

June 13, 2009
07:30to12:30

Lake Minnetonka Association is looking for volunteer boat captains who can provide a boat to carry divers at this year’s Lake Clean Up day. The captains will carry divers to their dive locations on Lake Minnetonka and remain with their dive teams for two hours. Each boat should be large enough to carry three to four divers (24′ and larger) and have a sturdy ladder that can support a diver wearing SCUBA equipment (about 300lbs). We are looking for at least ten volunteer captains with boats.

Interested members should contact Ric Palmer (651 688-9342/rpalmer@argentasystems.com) or Lt/C Bob Brown (952 472-3680/executive@minnetonkaps.org).

Plan on arriving at Bayside Grill no later than 0730 on June 13. They will be serving a pancake and continental breakfast for participants.
