On Saturday, June 27, Ohio River Way sponsored their 8th annual Paddlefest, where participants paddle their canoes and kayaks from Coney Island to Sawyers Point, a distance of 8.2 miles. Paddlefest is the largest paddling event in the country with over 1800 people paddling down the river in one event.
Milford agent, Eugene Jasper has volunteered for several years at Paddlefest “doing what needs doing” to get that many folks onto the water safely.
When all the boats and paddlers had left Coney Island there were cases of green bananas that had not made it onto the river. What to do, What to do. Jasper delivered 4 cases of green bananas to the Free Store Food Bank in Cincinnati, another 2 cases to the CBWS – Milford office to be picked up by the Milford Miami Ministry, and 2 cases were delivered to his niece in Butler County who has connections that serve the Hamilton area.
What would you do with several cases of green bananas???
