Bellingham’s Waypoint Park beach made headlines on May 20th! The site cleanup and beach creation at Waypoint joins three others as winner of “America’s Best Restored Beach”, an award given each year by the American Shore and Beach Preservation Association. Waypoint Park is one of two CGS projects to win this award: the Port of Bellingham’s Marine Park won the title in 2009.
The other 2019 winners are:
- Caminada Headland, Louisiana
- South Padre Island, Texas
- Duval County, Florida
Congratulations to the project teams who restored these beaches!
