Brian Storey (far left) and Barbara Wellwood (far right) accept a generous donation from (l to r) Rob Clarke, Lito Veloso and Elizabeth McLeod of the Comox Valley Harbour Authority.
The Comox Valley Harbour Authority held the first ever “Comox Harbour Hole in One” competition at Comox Nautical Days. They put a “T Box” in the Comox Harbour parking lot with the “Floating Hole” approximately 100 yards away in the water between the docks and the Black Fin. Almost 500 stepped up and gave it their best shot with only one achieving the goal of landing on the floating hole.
Donations of $1 per ball were accepted and resulted in a donation of $550 to Project Watershed. We would like to thank them for their generous donation of the proceeds of this competition as well as for the donation of dock space earlier in the summer for our eelgrass team to prepare eelgrass stems for transplanting near the Royston Wrecks.
