Portland Quarry?

[medic001918]

Hey everyone,
I'm just curious as to what the latest news is on the Portland Quarry. It seems to be a topic that fell away after the town approved it. When is it going to be open for some regular diving? And new progress with it?

It won't be open 'full time' until next spring. I PM'd Frank about it a while ago, and he indicated they're working out some contracts for the park, presumably along the lines of cleanup and safety. No other details, though.

Hey folks, Sorry about the lack of info. We and the town had a couple of big issues to work out. As of last week we got together and agreed on all the details. It looks like we will close this contract at the end of this month. As soon as we close it should be open for all dive shops and divers. We are looking at early spring for all the docks above and below to be in place and the rock climbing walls both man made and natural should be up and running. The two, one hundred foot slides and swin area should also be close behind. Thanks Frank, Any ? esi2spy@aol.com

Sounds great, Frank. After the contract signing, are there going to be regular open hours (including weekdays) this year?

FRANK!!! Nice to see you back! I had heard some VERY disturbing news, that you were in the Betty Ford clinic for coffee and Captains dependancy. I, however, never believed it, as I knew that you did not have the drive,or the ambition that it takes to be a good addict. All the guys miss the weekend stone crushing sessions, and don't forget there's one more detail that needs to be attended to before the actual festivities start!
