McClellanville Creek Cleanup and Fishing Tournament

There are two great events coming up in McClellanville.
This Saturday, Sept 20th, is Beach Sweep / River Sweep Day. Volunteers will be cleaning up Jeremy Creek from 10:00am to 1:00pm in participation with International Coastal Cleanup . Cheves Leland and Sherry Browne are once again heading this event up and Nature Adventure Outfitters will be graciously providing kayaks and canoes free of charge to those who do not have one. My wife and I participated in last year’s Creek Sweep and had a great time paddling around in our big old canoe scooping up trash. Here’s a picture of the 40+ bags of trash collected last year, lets see if we can top it this year!

There will also be raffles for prizes as well so be sure to check in at the boat landing before you start.

Also coming up on October 4^th is the Josh Thomas Memorial Creekslam. This is McClellanville’s 17^th Annual Inshore Fishing Tournament, which has been renamed in loving memory of former Archibald Rutledge Academy senior who was an avid fisherman. For much more information on this event please visit www.CreekSlam.com . If you register before September 19^th , you will get a free T-shirt.
