Charleston WATERKEEPER® Leads International Effort to Save Our Gulf

Local Organization Creates Campaign to Engage Waterkeeper Alliance in Gulf Coast Recovery Effort

In the midst of this devastating BP oil disaster, it is safe to say that most everyone is concerned with the current plight facing the Gulf Coast. With no clear end in sight, this catastrophe is forcing many of us across the Southeast to question how we will be impacted, and what we are going to do about the situation.
Cyrus Buffum, Executive Director of Charleston Waterkeeper, our local water watchdog organization, has taken the lead to create SaveOurGulf.org, a web-based project aiming to raise funds for fellow Waterkeepers on the front lines throughout the Gulf, and provide real-time, accurate information about what may be the largest environmental and economic disaster in U.S. history.
SaveOurGulf.org is an initiative supported by the Waterkeeper Alliance, an international organization of nearly 200 Waterkeeper programs, to aid in the ongoing efforts of the Lower Missisissippi Riverkeeper, Louisiana Bayoukeeper, Mobile Baykeeper, Emerald Coastkeeper and Apalachicola Riverkeeper, who are working around the clock to provide their firsthand knowledge and expertise in order to help minimize the environmental impact from the oil disaster. Together with the Waterkeeper Alliance, Buffum and the five Gulf Coast Waterkeeper organizations located in the direct impact zone are updating SaveOurGulf.org daily with accurate and original content to assure that citizens around the world are given a firsthand account of what is happening on the ground.
Utilizing social media tools and innovative fundraising ideas, SaveOurGulf.org gives citizens opportunities to help contribute to crisis efforts. Interactive components, such as live Twitter feeds from the Waterkeepers on scene, aerial photographs of ground zero, maps and firsthand accounts of critical incidents, allow people to receive live, unfiltered content from the front lines. In addition, by using tools like RT2Give, a donation tool allowing users to donate to the relief effort with a simple retweet on Twitter, SaveOurGulf.org is an example of how modern communication can aid in crisis relief.

The Waterkeeper Alliance has mobilized their programs worldwide to assist, advise and aid SaveOurGulf.org and the affected Waterkeepers. Waterkeepers serve as the voice of the world’s waters, and during such a disastrous event, Gulf Waterkeepers are working together to best protect their communities and the waterways on which they depend. SaveOurGulf.org shares these efforts with the rest of the world, and reveals a front-line perspective of what is being done on the ground.

In MOST cases we are firm believers in the saying "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."  That is until we met our newest client, WindPath of Charleston Fractional Yacht Program.


For those who are not familiar, fractional yachting is similar to a time share. Members have seven guaranteed uses per month, plus as-available use. WindPath not only allows access to the water, but also removes nearly all of the hassles associated with boat ownership.


WindPath Charleston's luxury yacht, Endeavor, is a 35-foot Catalina 350 markII and is conveniently docked at the Charleston City Marina. Members may take the yacht out for a few hours after work, get away for a weekend, or cruise for an entire week. 


A proud supporter of Charleston WATERKEEPER, WindPath Charleston will donate $500 for every new member. And, those who sign-up during the month of May, will receive one month free.


On Saturday, May 22, 2010, WindPath Charleston will open the deck of Endeavor for an open house giving guests the opportunity to talk with current members, tour the boat and learn more about the member and owner-member programs available. The open house will take place from 10:00a.m. - 4:00p.m. at Charleston City Marina, Slip J-20. For those interested, demo sails will be held on Sunday, May 23, 2010, by appointment only.

March Recap

We've been busy girls the last few weeks. Taking part in some of Charleston's quintessential springtime events has been just what we needed to get over the February blues. Instead of a To Do list, we wanted to recap what's been going on in the life of McKay recently. We wish you a happy Easter/Spring Break week and hope that you will be with family & friends and able to just enjoy! Cheers!

Gullah singers serenaded the first visitors to the Charleston Wine + Food Festival (March 4-7) and the Sneak Preview of the 2010 Culinary Village. The music was a perfect pairing to the Festival's kick-off in Marion Square. We especially loved the joggling board and authentic wares.



"Rice & Beans" artwork displayed the likeness of local, acclaimed Chef Mike Lata, FIG, in addition to other recognizable locals. Proceeds from the silent auction items benefitted the Wine + Food Festival's signature charity, Louie's Kids, a local non-profit organization that helps to fight childhood obesity nationwide.




This year's Bubbles & Sweets...With a Twist! was a veritable candy land under the main tent in Marion Square. Inspired by everything sweet (and bubbly), local and national pastry chefs served desserts that included everything from bubble gum ice cream, candied apple turnovers to chocolate three-ways. The crowd danced enthusiastically to local live band, Hot Sauce, a new addition to this year's Bubbles which has previously been deejayed. We were in heaven!




We were happy to be involved again with Charleston Waterkeeper, Cyrus Buffum, and his organization's first annual Water Ball, held March 27th at the S.C. Aquarium. With more than 300 guests in attendance, the Water Ball more than met its goal of educating and involving more of the local public in our fight for clean water. We are proud to be involved with this group of amazing individuals, and really can't wait to see what will be next!






We were up early this past Saturday morning, getting ready for the Cooper River Bridge Run from both directions! Mackenzie coordinated Team BANa runners at the Start, while Elizabeth waited at the Finish, armed with thousands of BANa to give to thirsty, depleted runners and walkers.

BANa [Serious Rehydration] also took part in the two-day Expo held at the Gaillard Auditorium, educating and informing the public about the benefits of BANa to serious athletes and beyond.


Team BANa runners celebrated "getting over it" and the completion of their 6.2 miles. BANa hosted an [After-Run] Party for Team BANa runners, walkers, supporters, family and friends above The Smoking Lamp across from the Finish Festival, overlooking Marion Square. It could have been warmer, but the company could not have been better. We are so excited for BANa and the great opportunities that are sure to come. Up next - Family Circle Cup! Keep track of us on twitter @BANaBottlingCo.

We would love for you to share with us any of your experiences or photos from some of these events or any other recent goings-on that we did not include. We can't do it all, but we sure do try! Don't forget to follow us @McKayFreelance.
