Strawberry Moon

June 3rd saw the last full moon of the spring, called the Strawberry Moon, it rose over Calibogue Sound. Four minutes later the sun set over the sound. The absolute best place to view these delightful events just minutes apart is from a boat anchored on Calibogue Sound. A group of LCYC members set out to take part in this special time on the water.

Children/ Grandchildren Fishing Event

On July 3rd, LCYC parents and grandparents with their children and/or grandchildren ventured out for Inshore fishing for about three hours.

The Kayak paddlers have been taking trips through the Salt Marsh, learning about the ecology of the area.

The LCYC was proud to host a group of 17 kids from the Boys & Girls Club of HHI on a boating excursion to Daufuskie Island. During the trip each captain provided the opportunity to take over the helm, quite an experience for each child. Once there they were treated to lunch of chicken fingers and fries along with ice cream. Boys & Girls Club Outing
