ARK celebrations in Hawkinsville keep getting better. Thanks
to the hospitality of Mary Lynde and Bub Way, on September 23rd over
150 members of the Altamaha Riverkeeper enjoyed a great day on the Ocmulgee
River.
Over the last three years, the event at Way's Landing has attracted
a growing number of river supporters from throughout the watershed.
The party's cuisine offered the best of upper and lower watershed delicacies;
fried fish from the Ocmulgee and low country boil with fresh shrimp
and crabs. Adding to the fare were delicious homemade deserts and
side dishes from many
guest's special recipes. Topping off the afternoon was music by
the Middle Georgia Mountain Dulcimer Club and river cruises captained
by Ed McDaniel.
It was wonderful day in the watershed and an opportunity for the
Altamaha Riverkeeper to thank all of its supporters. Sharing
time on the river is
a good way for us to remember why watershed protection is so
important.
