Every explorer needs a break once in as while. Out there along the rivers in the Carolinas, an Eno hammock with their Atlas suspension system is the way to go!

When we interviewed Chief Harold 'Buster' Hatcher, Chief of the Waccamaw Indians, he not only gave us a quote that we adopted for the title of our Waccamaw short film "The River that Comes and Goes". That's one of the possible translations of Waccamaw.

He also made a statement that should be true for everyone "Our people revere nature. Period"

During the summer months the rivers in South and North Carolina get really low. Carolina Rivers spoke with many people that live along these rivers and their take is that too much water gets diverted for farming upstream. Who is in charge of allocating our natural water resources?

16/10/2015

Each short film we produce for Carolina Rivers has a unique title. How we come up with these? We interview people that live along those rivers and at least one of them always comes up with a great quote. Like Camille Warren, a river enthusiast who lives along the shores of the Black river:
"So much water, so little time".

Check out all Carolina Rivers short films at our YouTube. Channel, access through Carolinarivers.com

Carolina Rivers captures the story of the rivers by venturing on and along the river to meet the locals and hear their stories.

Filming along the Black River in North Carolina, we visited the Brooks Brothers shirt factory n Garland NC. That's right, those famous shirts are made right here near the Black River!

It's the last textile factory in an area where there used to be many 50 years ago.

Mark your calendar! While filming along the Black River in North Carolina we met Annie and John Matthews, who run a small museum in an old school not far from Garland, NC. The store is filled with items from the early 1900s. The Matthews also organize an annual Sorghum Festival www.old school sorghum.com. It will be next weekend on Oct 17 Saturday!

As the sun returns to the skies across the Carolinas everyone here at Carolina Rivers hope that all those affected by the flooding caused by Hurricane Joaquin will be able to get their lives back together much sooner than later.

Anyone out there that would like to help those that have been affected please contact your favorite local charitable
organizations to find out how you can help those communities devastated by this natural disaster.

Carolina Rivers is telling stories about the rivers of North and South Carolina through the people we meet along those rivers. On the Waccamaw, Julian Monroe Fisher interviewed Mr.Babson of Babson's Bait & Tackle store who also owns one of the few drop ins a along the Waccamaw. For a small fee you can get your canoe or kayak in the water there. Fishing off the per is free.

LEXINGTON COUNTY, SC (WIS) - Lexington County emergency management officials recommend the voluntary evacuation of all locations within a quarter mile of the banks of the Lexington County side of the Saluda and Congaree rivers. This voluntary evacuation recommendation is based on information received from SCE&G concerning its plans to release more water from the Lake Murray Dam, which will impact the Saluda and Congaree rivers.
The public should seek shelter with friends or family outside of the quarter mile evacuation zone.
Lexington County will open White Knoll High School as an American Red Cross shelter later this afternoon. Pets are not permitted in American Red Cross shelters.
A curfew has been issued for 6 p.m. tonight in all unincorporated areas of Lexington County and its municipalities except Chapin and Irmo. The curfew will be in effect until 6 a.m. tomorrow morning.
If you must travel for work or emergency purposes, please note many roads are impassable and visibility will be greatly diminished after dark.
