Thanks to everyone out there who made a donation to the Duct Tape Kayak Project booth at this year’s Plymouth Waterfront Festival. Our volunteers had a great day hanging out down by the Plymouth Rock with the Duct Tape Kayak and spreading the word about the great work that the folks at Heroes on the Water do for our returning vets! We met hundreds of people who were drawn to our booth by the red, white, and blue Duct Tape Kayak and were more than happy to make a donation to support such a worthy cause! The event brought in over $700.00 which catapulted our season total past the $1250.00 mark and puts our lofty goal of $2000.00 well within reach!
We’re also very grateful for our sponsors who came through yet again to support this fundraising event! Our thanks go out to Billington Sea Kayak for helping to cover the entry fee and to MTI Adventurewear and Panera Bread for donating some awesome raffle prizes! The lucky winners of our Plymouth Waterfront Festival raffle were:
- Brian Quinn of Bridgewater, MA who won Free Bagels for a Year from Panera Bread
- Gail Matters who won a Duo Lifejacket from MTI Adventurewear

Happy Paddling!
