"Quite simply, Interlux is asking boaters who say they care about the environment to prove it," said Waterfront Challenge director Douglas Bernon. "Clean up a beach or river bank. Re-build a handicap-accessible dock. We'll consider all small-scale projects that could result in effective waterfront improvements," Bernon added.
Small groups - organized clubs, a group of friends, a family - should apply now for grants to be awarded at the Miami International Boat Show in February, 2009. The deadline for applications is November 5. A six-judge panel will award seven regional grants of $5,000 each and one grant of $25,000 for the best overall waterfront project.
