Clam dig here tomorrow
Monday only for the Ocean Shores/North Beach areas. Excerpts from the state clam dig info web site:
April 23, Monday (8:35 a.m., -0.4 feet): Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis and Mocrocks. *Note: “Copalis” means Ocean Shores through Copalis Beach; “Mocrocks” is north of Copalis Beach through Pacific Beach.
No digging will be allowed on any beaches after noon.
Under state law, diggers can take 15 razor clams per day, and are required to keep the first 15 they dig. Each digger’s clams must be kept in a separate container.
Long-distance biker
Monday at 9 a.m. is a chance to cheer this long-distance biker as he beings his cross-country journey: Sea2Sea – On November 11, 2011 Tom Von Kaenel, a retired serviceman living in England, launched an ambitious international fundraiser to benefit UK and US servicemen. The fundraiser includes a 4077 mile ride across the United States from west to east coast starting in Ocean Shores, WA on April 23, 2012 and ending in Washington DC on July 4th.
Tom will be starting this portion of his journey Monday, April 23 at 9:00AM in front of the Ocean Shores Brokers office at 380 SR 115, just outside the Ocean Shores gates. Penny Romito, Ocean Shores Brokers, invites the community to the event to give Tom a big send-off.
Contact Penny Romito at 360-580-1517 for additional information. Check out Tom’s website at www.sea2sea.org for information on his fundraising efforts.
