On Sunday, September 21, 2008, Dive Winnipesaukee sponsored a cleanup of the waters around the Wolfeboro Town Docks. Four local divers and several shore helpers participated. Enough trash to fill several large plastic bags and a 12 foot long 3 inch diameter pipe were extracted from the bottom. Also brought up were 8 cell phones, a set of boat keys, several pair of Oakley sunglasses and 3 shopping carts belonging to Hunter's IGA. One man, hearing of the cell phones, came down to the docks and retrieved his cell phone from the pile. He had lost it 2-3 days earlier. While the cell phone was unlikely to work, he said he was going to try and salvage the memory card that contained his saved phone numbers. Thanks to the Town Of Wolfeboro for taking the trash load to the dump.

As a Thank You to the divers, following the cleanup, Dive Winnipesaukee treated them to a boat dive around the Ship/Moose Island area. The cleanup took about 2.5 hours and all had a good time. We look forward to doing it again next year.
