First boat launches from Isla Blanca ramp

The long-awaited launch of the first boat from the Isla Blanca Park boat ramp occurred Friday morning.

The boat belonged to Manny Vasquez, a longtime friend of Cameron County Commissioner Sofia Benavides. Aboard were Vasquez at the helm, Benavides, Commissioners Edna Tamayo and John Wood, and Parks Director Javier Mendez.

Two boats from the South Padre Island Coast Guard station stood by offshore.

The dedication ceremony, led by Cameron County Judge Carlos Cascos, was brief. The judge thanked all the parks workers who had labored long and hard to make the ramp a reality.
