ANNOUNCEMENTS
BOAT INVENTORY
We’ve made some progress in identifying boats, kayaks and paddle boards on the beach and matching them with their owners…see Inventory Listing. However, there are still some boats, etc. that need to be identified…some of which may be truly abandoned vs not being used. If you have already submitted the Boat Inventory Form there’s nothing more for you to do and thanks for your help.
If you have not submitted the Boat Inventory Form, please take two minutes to do so on the attached form and submit it to Denise Davidson, by June 3rd, at davidson159@gmail.com or mail it to:
Cove Point Beach Association
P. O. Box 454
Lusby, MD 20657
If you have any questions, please contact Denise Davidson at the email above.
SAFETY REMINDERS
NO SWIMMING AT THE POINT
Swimming at and around the point by the lighthouse is strictly prohibited due to severe currents. Please make sure you family and friends are aware of this. Calvert County has large signs posted at the point and the Association has signs at each entrance to the beach.
OBEY THE POSTED SPEED LIMITS
With more residents and vistors driving on our roads during the summer season, please obey the posted speed limits and watch for children playing and riding bikes in our community. The speed limit on Lighthouse Blvd. is 25 MPH and 15 MPH on all other streets.
GOLF CARTS
1. Kids who are 12 years or older may only drive golf carts when they are accompanied by an adult (parent or guardian); minors 16 or older may only drive alone if they have a driver’s license.
2. A golf cart driven by a minor without an adult or a driver’s license is illegal. If an underage driver gets into an accident driving a golf cart, the child or his/her parents would be liable for the damages incurred.
3. According to Maryland’s Department of Motor Vehicles, golf carts cannot legally operate on public roadways, such as Lighthouse Blvd. unless they are “street-ready.” The exception is a golf cart crossing a street to continue its journey to another portion of a private property.
So please, follow these simple rules and everyone will enjoy a safe summer!

ANNUAL BOAT INVENTORY
In the Board of Directors' effort to identify and remove any abandoned boats on our beach, we are re-initiating the Annual Boat Inventory. Association members are allowed to keep "suitably secured boats" on the beach. What has happened over time is that boats have been left on the beach after the owner sold their property or current owners no longer want their boats.
Specifically, Item 10 of our regulations governing Association Owned or Controlled Property is as follows:
Suitably secured boats belonging to members of the Association are permitted at
approximately the high-water mark so long as sufficient space remains between such
boat and equipment and the water for normal use of the beach area by all property owners.
The last thing we want to do is remove a boat that a member wants, so if you have a boat on the beach, please complete and return the requested information by April 15 using this form. If you know of any abandoned boats, please bring this information to our attention. Once we receive your responses and determine how many boats may be abandoned, we’ll advise of next steps. If you have questions, please email Denise Davidson at: davidson159@gmail.com.
