NOTE: A continuous complaint from BVA members, particularly boat owners, has been regarding the dog waste. Nothing can mar the beauty of a wonderful day quite like having your child or yourself stepping in dog waste and then leaving those aromatic footprints throughout your boat. PLEASE....if you are a boat owner or just a visitor enjoying the beauty of Squassux, clean up after your dog. If you see someone with a pooch leaving a present, please remind them to clean up. Please be considerate of your fellow boaters and neighbors. Happy Boating!
