🎉 BIG NEWS FROM BOLAR FLAT MARINA! 🎉
As many of you know, the marina dock has been a hot topic over the past year. We've received countless questions about when the dock would be fully accessible again, when the lights would be back on for nighttime safety, when boaters could tie up at the dock and when wet storage would become available.
For what has felt like a very long journey, our answer has often been, "We're working on it!" Between repairs, approvals, inspections and coordinating with multiple teams, it has truly been a process.
Today, we're thrilled to share some exciting news!
The team hired by the Forestry is currently on-site completing the proper reconnection of the dock cables and the electrical repairs were completed several weeks ago. With approvals now in place, the dock is officially back up and running for its intended uses!
🚤 Wet storage is now available for watercraft.
🚤 Boaters may temporarily tie up at the dock to access the store or restrooms.
🚤 The dock is safely accessible for walking during both daytime and nighttime hours.
🚤 Dock lighting is operational, providing improved visibility and safety.
Please note that the no-fishing-from-the-dock restriction remains in effect. Other dock activities, however, are now available and ready to enjoy!
We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the Forestry staff, the crews currently working on the dock cables, the electricians who helped restore power and the engineers and approval teams who helped bring this project to completion. This truly took a team effort and we appreciate everyone who played a role.
Most importantly, thank YOU for your patience, support and understanding throughout this process. We know many of you have been eagerly awaiting this announcement and we're just as excited to finally share it!
If you're interested in wet storage for your watercraft, please send us a message here or give the store a call. We'd be happy to help.
We look forward to seeing everyone back on the dock and enjoying another great season on the lake! 🚤☀️
