The Oak Harbor Marina will host a crab pot fundraiser Sunday afternoon.
Have crab pots?
If not, this is the perfect time to get some for yourself, while helping out a local organization which specializes in boating education.
The Deception Pass Sail and Power Squadron is holding a socially-distanced fundraiser Sunday, January 17 in the Oak Harbor Marina parking lot.
The event will run from 2-3 PM that day, and the marina can be found at 1401 SE Catalina Drive.
All crab gear being offered is clean and inspected, and includes the pot, approximately 80-feet of leaded line, new rot cord, bait bags or boxes, and Washington state legal floats in the size and color required.
There are 50 pots available, and payment needs to be made by cash or checks made out to DPSPS. No credit cards accepted.
The asked donation is $20 per regular crab pot, and $30 for stainless steel ones.
All fundraiser participants are required to wear masks.
Money raised goes to fund a non-profit organization in its 44th year of existence.
DPSPS has 70+ members from Whidbey and Fidalgo Islands and is dedicated to “education and training of safe boating activities.”
