New Clearance Markers for Steel Bridge?

After Last month's general member meeting where it was discussed on how to get clearance indicators on the Lower Steel Bridge lift section, Sgt. Dangler from MCSO said he would look into the matter. He confirmed since then that he has worked with a couple of contacts to move that request forward! This is great news for all boaters, but probably for the bridge tenders as well. We will continue to monitor the progress and hopefully see them attached soon.

Content in your Club's Newsletters that all Boaters should read?

We can't see every club's internal communication, but we have to think some of the articles would be great information for all boaters. If you find that article of interest, please forward it to cryanews@gmail.com after getting approval to share. We can all be more informed.

Would your club be interested in updates on Columbia River Yachting Association from its Leadership?

At the Columbia River Yachting Association, we are working on many new ideas for the organization and our boating community. If you would like to have us come and talk to you about our plans, please contact us at cryanews@gmail.com. When your club has a special event, please consider inviting the 2024 President Ron Bergmann and future Presidents to attend. As a past President, it was an honor for me to represent CRYA, and a highlight of my term served.
