“There is a way to do it better, let’s find it!”

Dana Point Boaters,
You are a boater who shares your love and enthusiasm for Dana Point harbor with your family and friends because you possess something wonderful to share with others. We know it feels fantastic to step aboard your vessel and to know that you are in a place you want to be. Your ability to share your joy, delight and comradery with others is priceless. The dollars you pay for the slip you occupy should likewise return to you in the form of a peaceful and lovely haven in which to entrust as home for your seaworthy vessel. Your generous gifts to the DPBA and legal fund ensures your voice is heard and therefore becomes strongly backed by the power of all boaters associated with the home you have chosen for your boat.

It is people like you that enrich the spirit of Dana Point harbor.  People are the cause of bringing vibrance and atmosphere to every area in which they choose to inhabit. A place without people is simply an area void of the livingness brought about through the presence and actions of individual people. Thank you again for choosing to go forward toward the common goal to restore and maintain our harbor as the safe haven for recreational boating, fishing, and access to the magnificent Pacific Ocean every person has the unrestricted right of access.
 
Affordable and reasonable fees, well-maintained docks, and facilities are the mandates of boaters like you. In gratitude, DPBA acknowledges and appreciates your continuous participation in helping to keep your voice heard through your monetary contributions.
 
Your regular contributions to DPBA and the legal fund are essential to continuing the ongoing effort to keep Dana Point harbor a shining jewel on the California coastline. Every stakeholder carries the responsibility and duty to help spread the word and contribute to the common goal. Now more than ever, your help is essential. The members of your board volunteer to devote time and attention to what matters to you. 
 
Now is the time for action. Donate today, continue to write, include photos, and ask questions. DPBA listens to boaters, advocates on your behalf, and appreciates your communication and support.
