With help from Joe Cook, Chapel Hill, NC - Steve repaired the "roof."

The Silver Swan Restaurant at Queen Anne Marina - 53 miles from Governors Run - lost their sign. We found it, slightly the worse after traveling the bay.

P. Sue, Joe and Jen Cook (Chapel Hill and Durham, NC) and John Rees, Round Hill, VA and Port Republic, MD, helped collect beach debris - the results are shown in this 40 cubic yard container

They said it couldn't be done without a crane - Members of the Governors Run community moved and reset the cabana entrance to the pier...one major step toward the pier renovation!
