April 26th I'll be paddling from McCreery to StoneCliff (upper New). Join me and bring $10.00 cash or write a check to "FPMAFP" aka the Fayette Plateau Ministrial Association Food Pantry. We'll defeat hunger together. We're meeting at 10:00 in the Exxon parking lot in Glen Jean WV. Food donations will also be accepted. The food pantry is sponsoring "a walk" but I've decided to turn their event into a paddling trip instead. Help others while having a good time on the river. Sounds like a win-win to me!

yep, But if it gets high we can hopefully borrow a raft from someone in the club. Mine is out of commission with a bad valve Do you want to borrow a ducky? I've got gaggle of 4, including a brand new tandem.that has yet to see the water.

It's looking like there's going to be a great turnout for this trip - wonderful. Would love to join in the fun, but Bridget and I will be in Tennessee this weekend for my mom's 80th. However, we will donate $2 for every boater that shows up for this. Let us know the final tally. The more, the better!

The easiest way to donate is to make a check to FPMAFP- "the Fayette Plateau Ministerial Association Food Pantry. i'll see if I can come up with an address, or you can catch me at a meeting, or just out boating. I'll bring the club tshirts, hoodies and logbooks to Glen Jean if anybody wants to purchase" stuff from the club. I've got the club items at my house already to take to the beginners clinic..

Being involved in a food pantry too, it would be hard to not help out another pantry and have a day of fun to boot. For all of you that are looking for a way to help your local community, I suggest you find a local pantry and lend a helping hand, Our pantry in Hamlin has recently been lucky to find a helping hand in Bridget. It can be hard work but very rewarding.

heyWes, i had you in mind when I thought this up. Perhaps the paddle for hunger could evolve into an annnual event- with the proceeds going to a different food pantry each year.
