| Ottine Dam Warning Sign
Fall San Marcos River
Cleanup In an effort to alert canoeist of the danger of Ottine
Dam, the TCRA has taken on the project of erecting a
cable across the river to support a warning sign. The
project will require the efforts of at least 6 people and
two consecutive Saturdays. The TCRA board of directors
has dedicated $350 in funding toward the project, but it
appears that most of the supplies are going to be
donated. Jerry Cochran has gained permission from land
owners on both sides of the river. Materials which have
already been donated include: Rusty Bailey - 350 feet of steel cable, clamps and an anchor, Mike Riley -two steel poles (with caps, eye bolts, rebar and welding completed) and a power auger, Phil Bowden - concrete mix, Jerry Cochran & Southwest Texas State - reflective
warning sign. The construction team will meet 9:00 AM Sat. November
1st. at the Palmetto State Park ranger station to set the
anchors and poles and will return to complete the project
on Sat. Nov. 8th at the same time as the San Marcos Fall
River Cleanup at Palmetto State Park. We will need chain
saws, line trimmers, shovels, and wheel barrows on the
first weekend and people to help on both weekends. If you
can help on this very worthwhile project please contact
me at home (512) 837-9853 or by digital pager (512)
