Hello Beach Lovers --

 

Just another reminder that our rescheduled lecture will be held this Wed 
Feb 1 at Battelle from 7:00 - 9:00 in the lower level of the William F 
Clapp Center (the new building).  Our speakers have put together a first 
rate presentation about the impact of coastal storms on our beach and 
the management activity required to respond to Mother Nature. 

 

This is a free event with complimentary refreshments and is truly not to 
be missed.  DBPS appreciates your support of the beach -- we hope to see 
you Wednesday night!
