Putting in palm trees!

Update from TCN:
UPDATE ON THE PARKING AREA CONSTRUCTION

We received an update from St Lucie County Parks & Recreation today. Although the contractor has been granted a few extra days due to weather, the park is still slated to be reopened sometime in November!

They explained that the standing water is not a concern. That section of the lot doesn't have base rock or subgrade yet, so the water is not reaching the curb.

The utility stub outs for the restroom are already installed. The building is prefabricated, so will go in quickly once it's delivered.

We've been asked to please alert our members not to cross the “Park Closed” and “Construction Zone” signs that have been placed there.

We will update you again in a few weeks. We're almost there (hopefully)!


King Tides, Supermoon, and Storms

It's that time of year again when high king tides erode the beaches. Add a supermoon and storms in the Atlantic and we've got quite a mess on our hands. Things are very wet and muddy on Hutchinson Island and there is a lot of debris washing up. We've always been the ones who keep our beach clean. You can help by bringing a bag and picking up debris whenever you are on the beach. Please do not leave your bag of trash on the beach; please take it home or put it in a county receptacle. Thanks to everyone who helps keep our beach clean!

REMINDER - NO NUDITY AT LITTLE MUD BEACH

I heard rumors that the parking may be open earlier than December e.g. mid-Nov. Hope so.

I see Bobs Barricades got the Job for Blind Creek.

In Asia, they would have completed 15 beach parking lots in this timeframe. I guess by waiting this long to pave everyone could say it survived one hurricane season.

It looks fancy. I dont see any big shower house or restrooms from this view.

I cant wait to see if the vibes changes with striped parking lots versus the wild west grass lots. Will we be allowed to park on A1A like we have for years when the lot fills up? I doubt it, govt never takes down a no parking sign.

Here is a photo of the entrance from last Monday, 10/6. Not an expert but looks like the gravel base is down prior to paving! X=crossed fingers.
