As a reminder, boat captains must provide their own crew. We will not be matching crew members to boat captains. Captains and crews must pick up their materials (including bags, gloves, and additional instructions) between 9-10 am on Saturday, May 17 at New Fairfield Town Park boat launch. Return at around noon to unload your trash at the ramp and come up to the park for some lunch!
