POTW: Toes up if you’re having fun

July 8, 2021

After being our fearless leader and publisher since CYOB kicked off, Greg Nicoll, handed over the reins to our new boss, Jill Snider, just last week. To celebrate her ascendancy, Jill has been granted Photo of the Week with a great shot!

“On the left is my son Nolan Snider, age 8, the right is his big cousin Devon Kors. It was taken on Gloucester Pool (between Big Chute & Lock 45) a few weekends ago. Both were new to tubing and had a blast.”

That’s how POTW works, except you don’t need the connections. Any boating shot could be the next Photo of the Week – kids, dogs in lifejackets, sunsets, sunrises…you name it.
If it was taken on, near or from a boat, we love it. Send your POTW shot to CYonboard@kerrwil.com and it could be our next featured shot – we need lots so send yours now!

As we reflect on this rich history, we can begin to see trends in how our footprint may have had an effect on the environment, in not-so-positive ways. However, by embracing innovative solutions and adopting sustainable practices, both marinas and boaters hold the key to preserving and enhancing the quality of our lakes and marine life for generations to come.
