Daniel Alvarez's 4,000 mile kayak adventure

Beginning in June of 2012, Daniel Alvarez has paddled through the maze of lakes in the Boundary of Waters, navigated through Lake Superior, paddled the mighty Mississippi River and, currently is paddling down the Gulf Coast in hopes of bringing awareness to the preservation of our rivers, lakes and oceans. The Gulfport Area Chamber of Commerce, the Boca Ciega Yacht Club and the Gulfport Public Library are proud to support the fine work of Mr. Daniel Alvarez while he is making a short stop in Gulfport this Thursday and Friday.


 


Join Daniel for a reception at the Bogie Ceiga Yacht Club on Thursday, February 14 at 5:30 p.m., and a question and answer forum at the Gulfport Library on Friday, February 15 at 4:30 p.m. We hope that everyone who cares about preserving our waters will come out and support either or both of his Thursday and Friday appearances.  Visit http://predictablylost.com/ to track Mr. Alvarez’s inspirational journey to Key West.
