The last sanding and the first coat of finish. Our gig looks a lot different tonight.

The starboard side of our new gig is 99% done, sanded and filled and ready for the next step. The port side is about 85% done. With some luck we can finish it up on Sunday. 

The celebratory pot luck holiday party was well attended and well enjoyed by all! Happy Holidays!

Last Tuesday, Village Community Boathouse hosted the first post-pandemic in-person Hudson River Park Advisory Council meeting in their boathouse on Pier40. VCB has held a seat on the council since its inception.

The Advisory Council includes elected officials representing communities neighboring the Park as well as representatives of local community, park, environmental, civic, labor and business organizations.

The Advisory Council advises and makes recommendations to the Hudson River Park Trust’s Board of Directors on matters regarding the planning, design, construction and operation of the Park. The Advisory Council Chair generally provides a report at every Hudson River Park Trust Board of Directors meeting regarding matters considered at the most recent Advisory Council meeting.
