SUMMARY:Paddle Through History on Moores Creek
DESCRIPTION:Click here to register! \nJoin us and Moores Creek National Battlefield for a patriotic paddle along Moores Creek in celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. \nMoores Creek is situated along a 88-acre national park that commemorates the battle between Patriots and Loyalist militia on February 27th\, 1776. This battle was the first major victory for the Patriots and independence in North Carolina. The creek itself is a peaceful\, slow moving blackwater creek that flows into the Black River\, a major tributary of the Cape Fear River. \nWe will experience the creek as it was in 1776\, starting at the battlefield\, passing under the historic bridge\, and tucking into untouched cypress swamps. This paddle is an out-and-back with a roughly 2.5 mile route. Following the paddle\, we will load up and take time to enjoy lunch within the park\, before joining a park ranger for an exclusive history tour (included with paddle registration!).
