www.hoodrivernews.com P ORT Continued from Page A1 will boost from 29 spots to 47. Diagonal parking along Port- way Avenue will increase by 18 spaces, with a new total of 26. On-street parking at the waterfront is free, with some “drop-off only” zones and 90- minute limit in some areas. The Port is considering a metering or parking pass system in the future. This year, they’ll be studying how well the current structure works for accommodating the flood of summer traffic. “The Port will be assess- ing parking capacity, vehicu- lar circulation and typical length of time cars are parked in designated areas this summer to determine fu- ture planning needs,” said Whitmore. The waterfront will have limited access in several areas over the weekend: The Spit: The Port closed Hood River News, Saturday, July 4, 2015 the Spit area at noon on Fri- day, July 3 and will open it again Sunday, July 5. Event Site Access to Sand- bar: Access to the Sandbar from the Event Site will be closed at 7 p.m. on July 4 to all spectators and recreation- alists due to fireworks. Kite- board launching and landing from the Event Site grass is prohibited. Marina Beach and Marina Park: The sandy area of the Marina Beach will be closed at 7 p.m. on July 4.

Fireworks will be prohibit- ed on all Port properties, in- cluding the Marina and Wa- terfront areas. Genevieve Scholl, Port communications and special projects manag- er, said dark conditions and heavy pedestrian traffic after the fireworks show make it important to use caution while driving in the area.

Riverside UCC Looking for a summer camp that incorporates art, outdoor activities, music, games and healthy snacks? Sign up for Riverside’s “Earth Camp,” where kids will grow in faith, have fun, and change the world. Riverside Earth Camp is an environmentally focused 5-day experience that in- spires kids to make a differ- ence with their own unique approach and gifts to the world. We start each day with gathering music, crafts and skits, then move through four different classrooms, where we use touch, taste, sound, visuals and real-life demonstrations to teach kids an appreciation and respect for this planet that we call home. The program will be based on an earthly story with heavenly meaning — a para- ble from the teachings of Jesus. Every day, the kids will be exploring an environ- mental question, such as, “What do seeds need in order to grow?” along with a spiri- tual question, like, “What do I need in order to grow?” Riverside Earth Camp will be held at Riverside Church, 317 State St. Registration is $50 for the week and includes healthy snacks. Grades K-5 (ages 5-11) welcome. To re gister, visit www.riversideucc.com — see “Nurture Your Children” link — and mail to RCC, PO Box 656, Hood River, OR 97031.
