Chaney Cr. Trash Pile by Paddlers
This was the trash collected by paddlers on Chaney Creek:
To Keep America Beautiful
Now is the time for all citizens to come to the aid of our country and stop, or at least, curtail littering.
Please duplicate the following on your own letterhead or your firm's you work for. Have your church do it too. And your club and your schools and your friends. The point is we need to reach every citizen and visitor. Don't worry about duplicate signatures. Do it again and again. This way we will be sure to reach everyone and make them think twice before discarding littwhereverver they may be.
This is a new campaign in the fight against littering.
Choose the statement which suits your fancy, or choose all three, and put the number or numbers beside your name.
To Keep America Beautiful: #1 I will not litter #2 I do not litter #3 I will fight litter
(Example: signed: Elmer B Eddy 1,2,3 Fill the page up with signatures).
Mail it or e-mail it to the anti litter group you may be working with or to us.
Thank you, Elmer

Shackleford Banks Trip April 17
Please help clean up this entire island along its 13 mile ocean beach front and along the sound side and in the middle along the trails made by our wild horses.
Just show up at The Local Yokel Ferry in Harkers Island at 9:00 AM on April 17 or 18 and again on the 24th or 25th.. Get a free ride over. See the horses as you remove the litter we have discarded on their habitat.
Or, paddle over there in your own kayak or canoe any time.. Pick up a few bags. Leave them on the sound side above the high tide line.
Dave Carney, Resource Education Park Ranger and Dr Sue Stuska, Ed.D., Wildlife Biologist-Horses and all others in our National Park Service, Cape Lookout National Seashore, U. S. Department of the Interior, will appreciate it very much but, most of all, think about our wild horses. Let's get our man made litter off their dining room table and out of their bed rooms and out of their living rooms and off their playground.
And do it for our tourists, also, who come from all over the world to see our National Seashore Park and our wild horses. Let's send them home with fond memories of North Carolina uncluttered by litter. Elmer

Web Site Update
We've tried a couple of ways of making the web site more interactive. We hope using blogger will help.
Chaney Creek has had all man made trash removed yesterday. Thanks to New River Foundation who organized the event. Marines and Camp Lejeune Young Marines pitched in along with many other good citizens.
Two Young Marines were over heard, "Isn't it against the law to litter?" They were perplexed as to why all this litter was here.
I wish I had an answer for them.
I do know that if no one litters, there will be no litter. We, the people, discard everything we don't want. not only in Chaney Creek, but everywhere!
Only, we the people, can stop it. Just don't do it! Elmer
Pictures on our web site soon.
