Shands Boat Ramp reopens six years after Hurricane Matthew


Posted

GREEN COVE SPRINGS – The Shands Boat Ramp, bulkhead and parking areas in Clay County are back open. Hurricane Matthew damaged the Shands Fishing Pier beyond repair in 2016. During the last three months, crews removed the remaining piles and timbers, totaling more than tons of materials. County officials had to close the area while crews worked. There were a lot of memories at that pier, and it was a piece of Clay County’s history.
