17th Annual Paddle to the Border Returns in 2022
In early spring hundreds of paddlers launch their vessels into the Dismal Swamp Canal’s dark, mirrored waters. This historic waterway serves as the backdrop for Paddle for the Border, an annual 7.5-mile paddling excursion to the North Carolina/Virginia border.
This annual event celebrates the canal’s rich history, which dates to 1763 when George Washington’s land company first surveyed the swamp before commissioning the waterway’s construction. In the 19th century, the canal’s dense wetlands provided refuge for slaves traveling the Underground Railroad before continuing their journey north.
After enjoying a traditional pre-launch breakfast at the Dismal Swamp State Park, in South Mills, NC, paddlers embark on the leisurely three-hour journey to cross the state line. They finish the day out with a picnic lunch on grounds of the Dismal Swamp Canal Trail at the Great Dismal Swamp Boat Ramp at Ballahack Rd. in Chesapeake, VA.
Event Date: Saturday, May 7th, 2022.
The library is hosting a Free Comic Book Day on Saturday, May 7th.

Nickels for Know-How Referendum
The Camden County Nickels for Know-How Referendum will be held on Thursday, November 17, 2022.
Austin Brown, County Extension Director, Camden County announced a polling place has been establish in the county. The polling location will be at the N.C. Cooperative Extension-Camden Center, located at 120 NC Highway 343 North, Camden.
Austin Brown explained that the referendum is being held to let users and producers of
feed or fertilizer decide if they wish to continue the self-assessment program. This
program has been in place since 1948, and the law requires that a new referendum be
held every six years.
A 2/3 favorable vote will mean that growers are willing to continue to assess themselves
to support agricultural research and education. The assessment is fifteen cents per
hundred pounds on feed and fertilizer produced in North Carolina.
The funds, about $1.4 million annually, are collected by the North Carolina Department
of Agriculture and Consumer Services and then allocated by the NC Carolina
Agricultural Foundation, Inc.'s 148 volunteer Board of Directors to support agricultural
research and extension projects at North Carolina State University benefitting
agriculture in North Carolina.
For more information on the referendum, please call your County Extension Office at
(252) 331-7630.
