Nassawango Creek is one of DELMARVA kayakers favorite paddling locations, particularly if you can find the path through the water lilies to the upper reaches. We usually put in at Snow Hill, paddle two miles downstream on the Pocomoke and turn upstream on Nassawango Creek. If you have […]

For those interested in viewing the Cypress Trees near Snow Hill, MD, a trip on Nassawango Creek provides that opportunity. For a round trip of 10 miles launch at Byrd Park in Snow Hill onto the Pocomoke River. One of the nicest launches around you can usually […]
We skipped kayaking on a beautiful fall Saturday to attend the 2nd Annual Chesapeake Story Telling Festival at Chesapeake College. My review, please please hold a 3rd festival! We were originally attracted to the festival because it featured Gwendolyn Briley-Strand as Harriet Tubman. With our grandchildren we’ve explored […]
