It was out with the old and in with the new Thursday at Lake Clementia as the Rancho Murieta Association Maintenance Department replaced the worn-out boat dock with a new one. The day was sunny and warm, but the water was still winter cold as workers in the lake set the dock on a trailer and Maintenance Manager Rod Hart used heavy equipment to pull it to shore.

The swim platform at Clementia is also being replaced. Both pieces of equipment will be refurbished and redeployed in other lakes.
