Upcoming Programs and Business Meetings

Join us to learn how stakeholders on the Occoquan River were invited to cooperatively solve a big problem: mixing "human-powered craft" (such as paddleboards and kayaks) with power boats that want to go fast, not thinking about their wake. For four years, CAPCA member Captain Bob Schwartz has been leading a cooperative approach on the Occoquan to keep the waters safe for all types of vessels. His story is inspirational and serves as a model for how to bring together various stakeholders, including boaters, USCG, DNR, Fire, Police, county officials, and CG Auxiliary, to collectively discuss and solve safety challenges.

This presentation will be hybrid, with in-person attendance at the Elks Lodge in Edgewater MD as well as a Zoom link for virtual attendees. The Zoom link will be posted on the home page one week before the program.

The Elks Lodge is pleased to offer pay-as-you-go bar and dining services to individual attendees, before or during the presentation. Come join us for networking, as early as 5 pm.
