Boating on the Albemarle by Claude Milot In last month’s edition of Albemarle Tradewinds, Colleen Brown wrote an informative column describing all the places one can fish in Perquimans County. Rivers, creeks, and Albemarle Sound itself are indeed a paradise for fishermen of all kinds. But the waters in the area also provide an abundant source of pleasure of another kind: boating. The development three years ago of albemarleloop.com as a promotional vehicle for public and commercial marinas along the Albemarle Sound is paying dividends, as boaters on their spring and fall migrations have begun to explore these waters in greater numbers. One of the beneficiaries of the growing curiosity of “loopers” is Hertford’s Albemarle Plantation marina, which has already more than doubled last year’s number of visitors. The marina, with its 166 slips, is one of the largest public marinas on the East Coast, one of the few that can accommodate large groups of visitors, as it did last June when 20 sailboats from the Neuse Sailing Association tied up at the marina. These sailors spent two days enjoying the amenities of Albemarle Plantation: the championship golf course, the Clubhouse restaurant with its splendid view overlooking the 18th hole and the Sound, and especially the pristine pool—on the hottest days of the year. Sponsored by Dwelling Management Solutions When you need a body shop Call 252-338-1502 The Albemarle Plantation marina is also home to the Osprey Yacht Club (OYC) a very active organization that hosts regattas on the Sound and kayaking on the area’s many rivers and creeks, plus an annual fun event, the Cardboard Boat Race. In the summer, the OYC has two educational programs for kids. The Optimist (OPTI) Youth Learn-to-Sail program teaches beginners aged 9 to 13 the basics of sailing, first in a classroom, and then with one-on-one instruction on the water. Advanced students who have completed the basic course are taught the rigging and launching of sailboats and the elements of racing, perhaps to be seen one day competing in a regatta on the Sound. Fishing is fun. So is boating. Why not both? buymidway.com 252-335-9800 Buddy Gregory's Body Shop, Inc. “Quality is our main Concern" 330 North Highway 34 Camden, NC 27921 Raymond’s Creek T he Raymon’s Creek subdivision, situated in Camden, NC, near the village of Shiloh, is less than 45 minutes south of the Hampton Roads metropolitan area, and 45 minutes west of North Carolina’s Outer Banks.

The Raymon’s Creek Homeowner’s Association community park and pier, overlooks Albemarle Sound, and is suitable for wading, swimming, and boating.

Hope to see you there!! Orthodox Christianity Kindness is Meant to Be “No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” That is the moral of one of Aesop’s Fables, “The Lion and the Mouse.” Recall that in the story, a mouse accidentally wakes a lion, who threatens to kill the small creature. The mouse asks for mercy, and points out that killing such unworthy prey would bring the lion no honor. The lion relents and sets the mouse free. On his way out, the mouse promises that one day he will return the favor — the lion laughs in scorn at such a prospect. Later, the lion is netted by hunters. When the mouse hears the lion roar in frustration, he gnaws through the net and sets the lion free — fulfilling his earlier promise. by Fr Jonathan Tobias, MDiv, MSEd Be generous with your kindness, “freely give” your courtesy and your love. In the ancient wisdom of the Orthodox Church, there is a joyful certainty that God created humanity for love, beauty and peace. Violence, anger and hatred are unnatural realities that should be gotten rid of as soon as possible. “Carry out a random act of kindness,” the late Princess Diana once said, “with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.” PGF Archery and Outdoors PGF Phone: 252-334-9671 Fax: 252-334-9646 Danielle's Boutique Weddings Proms Each tuxedo is $40.00 off.

Somehow, mercy returns to the giver. St Basil the Great — a fourth century bishop in present-day Turkey — wrote that “A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost: he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.” A good deed is never lost.

Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for you know not what evil shall be upon the earth” (Ecclesiastes 11.1-2). https://stgeorgeedenton.org inquiries c/o St. George’s Church, P.O.
