 Clean Water Paddle 2007
« Thread Started on Aug 18, 2007, 3:25pm »

Thanks to everyone for coming out and making this, yes, the best Paddle ever. About 60 paddlers, kayakers, and canoers (is that a word?) took to the water, reached the Key Bridge, and made it to Roosevelt Island for a quick cleanup. Good job everyone. Also thanks to the sponsors and organizations who participated. (too many to list here)

Hope to see you at the beach cleanup on Sep 29. And now, the pics...

Awesome time this weekend. Thanks for all the participants and the sponsors as well as the people planning everything. Very nice job. The only hitch was that somebody forgot the wave machine...
