Canoe/Kayak Storage at Long Dock Park

From Scenic Hudson:
We've got some exciting news for paddlers in the greater Beacon area: up to 35 kayakers and 10 canoeists will be able to keep their boats in a new secure location along one of the most beautiful sections of the Hudson River at Scenic Hudson's soon-to-open Long Dock Park on the Beacon waterfront. Scenic Hudson is offering a lottery to determine which eager river enthusiasts will be able to rent the storage spaces at a new kayaking center, which will feature a restored beach and hardwood launching deck designed for nonmotorized watercraft.
An annual lottery will award the storage spaces, and paddlers who win spaces will pay a seasonal storage fee of $100 per boat. This year, the season will run from July 15 to Nov. 1, but subsequent seasons will extend from May 1 to Nov. 1. Access to stored boats will be restricted to the park’s hours of operation, from dawn to dusk.
To enter, email Joe Kiernan with your name, address and phone number by Friday, June 17, 2011. Please indicate whether you wish to store a kayak or a canoe. If you have specific questions, Joe also is available at 845 473 4440, ext. 262.
