A Floating Boat house-The Final Chapter

It has been a long time coming and on the morning of the 2010 End of the Year meeting of CCB Board of Directors, we're taking stock in where we've been and aim at where we're going at CCB. 2010 has been a banner year for CCB getting more than 750 kids on the water, obtaining 501c3 status and and of course having the chickens and Seaytee join our family at CCB!

But many do not know the full concept of what was envisioned for CCB on that rainy St. Patrick's Day morning in 2007 when I quit my job and Connecticut Community Boating, Inc. was founded. And as we close the books on 2010, it is with great hope and big plans that we prepare for 2011.

In the coming year, I hope to finish the project I started by implementing the final phase for CCB- A floating Boathouse in Bridgeport Harbor.

We've been kicking this idea around now for a few years and we have finally reached the point where it is time to bring it all together.  It's gonna take a lot of fundraising, a fleet of volunteers and a good healthy dose of public/private partnership. But now that even Stewie is taking pot shots at the Park City, it's time that we change the view from I-95 as we dot the Harbor with tiny little boats sailing in the shadow of a big ship at the Greater Bridgeport Regional Maritime Education Center!
