Compo Ready For All Comers

The temperature is near 90. A 3-day weekend beckons.

Let’s head to the beach!

Compo is certainly ready.

The new pavilion next to Joey’s is finished. A handsome new roof is up. Picnic tables — including some with cutouts for wheelchairs — are back.

An eco-friendly “Mobi-Mat” has been installed. It’s perfect for people with walkers or canes, in wheelchairs, and parents with strollers.

New signs direct daily parkers to a special area. Season sticker owners now get first dibs on the best spots.

Parks & Rec has made sure Compo is all set for summer.

Are you?

    Brilliant!! Thinking of the handicapped, and the parking for those w beach stickers. I applaud and am grateful for all those who worked so hard to do all this planning.

    I’m so happy an officer will be there for those that blast their music or loose all manners for respect of quiet, nature and serenity. thank you 🌹

    Having a paid Officer roaming the beach to determine what is serenity or manners?!

    We were st Compo today and are very happy with all the improvements–
    but sorry to say the directions for parking for non residents was not being followed! There were a few in the assigned lot, but many were in the front rows and the emblem lot.

    Hope the officer helps…..

    Compo Beach was my “home away from home” and I remember when a police officer wasn’t needed. The good old days!
