Help Foss Harbor Adopt a Family for Christmas This Year

We will be participating in Adopt a Family program for Christmas again this year. We have been assigned the same family as last Holiday Season. They were so grateful for everything last year; please help us to brighten up their Holidays once more. Details will be available in the marina office.

Winter Warnings at Foss Harbor Marina

Potential Water Shut-Off

During freezing weather the water may be shut off to the Marina to prevent broken pipes. Marina staff will post potential water shut off situations on the gates. Please prepare for this by having a supply of drinking water aboard your vessel during extra cold weather. Fill those tanks :)

Ramp and Dock Safety

Also, use caution on marina ramps and docks during wet and frozen weather. Please feel free to use the Ice Melt that is provided at every gate. A little ice melt can make a big difference for your safety and that of your fellow tenants. Please keep lines, hoses and other tripping hazards out of the aisle-way on the docks. Last but not least, drink responsibly. Alcohol has played a role in many of the slips, trips and falls that have recently occurred at our Marina.

Seas ‘N Greetings Festival will take place in the Foss Waterway on December 13th.
