The Hancock Park District has installed a new dock system at Eastpoint Area.

The dock is open for public use and will make kayak launching onto the Blanchard River much easier at that location.

Eastpoint is located at the corner of East Main Cross Street and Bright Road.

Bradley Hertel commented on the park district’s Facebook page saying he was tickled to death about the new dock.

“If you have never dropped here, it’s a great float. Long way takes you through the country club and to the park, the short way is very scenic. Going west, long, east, short.”

Holly Copado asked if fishing will be permitted and the park district said yes.
