The Town of Pollocksville opened its new ADA-compliant kayak launch facility on Wednesday, May 5, 2021.  Part of the Town’s Master Recreation Plan, the new launch is located in the Town Park near the NC Wildlife Boat Ramp and Fishing Pier.

Approximately 60% of the $35,000.00 project cost came from  NC General Assembly Downtown Revitalization Grant, supported by State Rep. Pat McElraft (R-Carteret/Jones) and former State Senator Harry Brown (R-Jones/Onslow), and administered by the NC Department of Commerce under its Main Street Planning and Rural Division.  Additional financial support was provided by the Town’s Beautification account, funded by property taxes.
