Glendale as you know is a private dock for the town of Gilford. The two workers there are town employees with a salary and benefits that we as town people pay for therefore tipping would not be protocol in my opinion. I do however usually get each of them a gift certificate for a local area restaurant at the end of the season as they do a great job.

The Weirs are a public dock and if the town allowed volunteers with a signed hold harmless agreement, I bet many people would tip…only cheapskates wouldn’t tip!! I know I sure would! Look at the tips the dock attendants make at the Naswa! Great summer job for young people too!
