The sun was shining on the beautiful Friday morning and the outdoor temperature was just right for the Surf or Sound Walk for the Cure on April 29th to raise money for the Hatteras Island Cancer Foundation. Surf or Sound staff together with other members of the Hatteras Island community gathered at Ramp 23 in Salvo at 6am for the long walk. Everyone was excited and ready to get started.
The walk was very pleasant and we all had a chance to see Rodanthe, Waves and Salvo from a different perspective. I noticed so many little details for the first time – some older buildings I haven’t seen before, everything looked quite different. On the way we encountered a family of ducks and small ducklings – they were enjoying the outdoors as well. It was just a sweet time to get some exercise, fresh air, catch up with news from colleagues and most of all raise money to support our island residents in their fight with cancer.
We managed to walk from Ramp 23 to Mirlo Beach in about one hour and forty five minutes and enjoyed every minute of it. We hope you can join us next time on our fun and leisurely walk!
