If you have your own kayak or canoe please feel free to bring it! Parking can be found along East Lake Shore Drive across from Lake Forest Baptist Church(1626 Lake Branch Dr\, Wilmington\, NC 28401). Please park on the side of the road and not in the church parking lot. Just look for the CFRW cleanup signs! CFRW will provide pickers\,bags\,gloves\, and safety vests.

We hope to see you out there! \nWho: Cape Fear River Watch and Easy Honey \nWhat: Squash Branch Cleanup \nWhere: Squash Branch(1626 Lake Branch Dr\, Wilmington\, NC 28401) \nWhen: July 6th from 9am-11am \nWhy: Because litter in our waterways sucks \nRegistration Link: https://cfrw.app.neoncrm.com/np/clients/cfrw/event.jsp?event=8592&

SUMMARY:August First Saturday Seminar

On Bald Head Island\, intense predation by coyotes became a very real threat in 2019 when over 100 hatchlings and 2\,000 eggs were lost. After a research project on best predatory exclusion cage design was conducted\, Seanna researched how these devices act as a visual attractant to coyotes on the island\, and what that meant for sea turtle management in the future! \nSpeaker: Seanna Jobe\, CFRW Outreach & Engagement Manager\nSeanna grew up in Western New York and moved to Wilmington for graduate school in 2020. She received her bachelor’s in environmental biology from Houghton University\, and her master’s in environmental studies from UNCW. While getting her masters\, she did her research capstone on Predator Exclusion Cages as Visual Attractants to Canis latrans. This research was conducted on Bald Head Island\, North Carolina\, where she was able to collaborate with Bald Head Island Conservancy. Seanna has been fortunate to have many formative experiences with wildlife which have directly influenced her passions for management and conservation\, and science communication!  \nWon’t be able to make it?

SUMMARY:October 2023 Paddle: Town Creek
DESCRIPTION:Register here! \n \nGreetings Riverwatch Paddlers! \nOctober’s paddle is going to be a little bit different – and awesome! Your Riverkeeper\, who usually leads\nthe paddle is going on vacation. But we didn’t want to cancel the paddle so we reached out to Angela at\nKayak Carolina to see if she would be willing to help. Angela\, who is a big River Watch supporter\,\nenthusiastically agreed to lead October’s paddle on Town Creek. Angela is an amazing guide and has\ndecades of experience showing folks the amazing waterways of the Cape Fear Region by Kayak. \nWhat will be different: All paddlers will meet at the put-in at Brunswick County Nature Park at 8:30 am. Do not\ncome to the office for this paddle. The kayak launch at the park is different than most. You can drive\ndown to the launch area and unload your kayak and gear\, but then you need to drive back up to the\nparking are near the rest rooms\, park there\, and walk back down to the kayak launch. The walk is about\na quarter of a mile on a nice gravel road. When you finish the paddle just walk back up to your car and\ndrive back down to load your kayak. Once you unload/load your boat you’ll need to clear out so the folks\nbehind you can unload/load. \nIf you reserve a kayak (CFRW members can reserve kayaks while they last) Angela will be bringing your\nboat and gear for this trip. \nSign ups will be the same. Sign up here\, check the waiver\, indicate if you want to reserve a boat\, and\ndonate online. If the weather is going to be bad\, we will cancel the trip Friday by 9pm\, so please make\nsure you check your email Friday night. If you have questions about the trip please reach out to Angela at angela@kayakcarolina.com or 910-458-9171.

SUMMARY:November Friendsgiving Paddle and Potluck
DESCRIPTION:Register here! \nAs we approach the end of our 3rd Saturday paddling series which runs from March through November we wanted to revive our end of the season oyster roast and potluck. This is a great chance for paddlers to get together and share a meal and some stories about your most (or least?) favorite paddle of the year. Just pick a dish using the sign-up genius link\, pack any perishable food in a cooler which will stay in your car while we paddle and when we get to the takeout we’ll retrieve our contributions to the potluck and enjoy! CFRW will provide steamed oysters as long as they last! \nOur November paddle will begin on the Brunswick River at the new Belville Park kayak launch. We’ll paddle across the Brunswick and into Alligator Creek\, along Alligator Creek\, under the Hwy 74/76 bridge (the tide will be low) and then back out into the Brunswick River\, continue upstream to the Cape Fear and then left into Davis Creek. We’ll take out at Davis Creek Park and have our Friendsgiving there. \nThe November paddle and Friendsgiving is very weather dependent. If it’s too cold\, it’s no fun and potentially dangerous to paddle. It’s also no fun to share a meal outside in those conditions. We will make the call the week of the paddle based on the forecast. \nMeet at the CFRW office at 617 Surry St. at 7:30 am OR at the Belville Park kayak launch at 8:15 am. \nWe encourage all paddlers to wear a PFD\, and we require all paddlers using CFRW boats to wear one.  Other items to remember include sunscreen\, hat\, sunglasses\, water\, and snacks. \nWe have a limited number of boats available for rent for CFRW members ($25 per boat; includes PFD and paddle). If you would like to rent a boat please indicate such during your registration. \nIf you would like to join or renew before the paddle\, you can click here to join or renew or call our office at 910-762-5606.  To help River Watch continue to bring you great programs like our Paddle Series\, Water Quality Programs\, and Educational Seminars\, we ask you make a $10 donation either online with your registration or by bringing cash or check to the paddle on Saturday.  THANK YOU! \nIf you need help the day of please call Kemp at 910-264-8036. Conditions may change in the period leading up to the paddle. Please check your email the night before and the morning of the paddle to ensure that the paddle has not been cancelled.

However waders and/or waterproof boots will be ideal here. So if you have those please bring them! The Second location will be at the backside of Calvary Memorial Cemetery\, which is located off N. 11th St. This location is for kayakers! CFRW will be providing ~6 boats and they will go quickly on a first come first serve basis. If you have your own boat please feel free to bring it! At either location just look for the CFRW cleanup signs! CFRW will provide pickers\, bags\, gloves\, and safety vests. As always remember to dress appropriately and bring water. We hope to see you out there!
