Uck. My roommate and his dog just got home from the bulb. He was out there at night, so he didn't know what his pup was getting into out there. He got out of the water and his whole lower half is now completely gunked up with a tar-like substance. This tanker accident did some SERIOUS damage to our bay. Careful with your dogs out there.

Oil Spill: How to help this weekend

In an effort to provide as much accurate information as possible, the
City needs volunteers to distribute information and talk with those
people gathering and/or visiting the beach area at the Bulb who may
not be aware of the hazards caused by the oil spill.
Volunteers wanting to help distribute information are to meet by the
bird sculpture at the end of the water front trail tomorrow morning,
Saturday, November 10, 10:00am, for an informational meeting.
Volunteers will be asked to take a two-hour shift some time
throughout the weekend including, Monday, November 12. Volunteers
will be briefed on the information to distribute and the need steer
people away from the water and surrounding areas during the clean-up
efforts.
THANK YOU for your willingness to help the City of Albany during this
time of need.
