Editorial Comment
by Wes Calhoun
On Independence Day I attended a fireworks paddle. The invitation mentioned donations to the Southeastern Guide Dogs charitable organization. The top three kayak outfitters in Pinellas donated kayak rentals, notably tandems, so visually-impaired folks could enjoy kayaking and fireworks. On one shop's website I read one of their staff members is deeply involved with the SE Guide Dogs. The more I look, the more I like how the local kayakers give back to the community in so many ways. It makes me want to get involved, too. I definitely will.
The next TBSK meeting is at Bill Jackson's on August 11 at 7 pm.
At our August meeting, Tom Iovino with Pinellas County Emergency Management will be speaking on hurricane preparedness. Tom has provided public education and information support for Emergency Management in Pinellas County through fourteen storm activations, wildfires, the countywide water outage of March 2003, local flooding, and light plane crashes. He is the the primary public information contact in Pinellas County. If you feel that this might be the year for that dreaded storm to finally hit home, you should be at the August meeting. You will find out how to prepare for hurricane season and what services will be made unavailable to you in an emergency
