Report on Bogue Sound Paddle on July 7, 2004
Tom Fineco, Jim Stevens and Elmer Eddy cleaned up the entire big island under
under the Emerald Isle Bridge. Last year it took us three trips to accomplish this.
Elmer's canoe was loaded. The gun-wales were close to the water. The two kayaks were loaded too. Jim got some pictures.
Fortunately. a south wind came up and blew us home. For the most part all I had to do was to use my paddle as a rudder.
Big Sweep, please mark this island off. No need to waste precious volunteeer's time here. Elmer

New Paddle on White Oak, July 14, 2004
Wednesday, June 14th 2004, Cartwheel Branch, Holland Mill Creek, and the White Oak River
We will meet at 9:00 at Ball Field on Swansboro Loop Road. This is almost across from River Reach Drive where I live. Ramp where we will put-in is nearby and is on private property.
Take out is at North Front Street in Swansboro at the Bicentennial Park. May reverse trip depending on wind and tide that morning. Should be off river at 3:00.
We will hug the western shore of the White Oak and pick up all trash as we paddle leap-frogging along. Trash should be at a very minimum we hope.
Our house is open to any and all who want to stop by to see Florence. Elmer
