Flora, MS. March 18, 2011—Keith Plunkett, Mississippi paddler and organizer of Lucy’s Revenge, is inviting the public to join him for a Mississippi River Adventure March 26-27. Plunkett, along with his wife Sharon, will be joined by fellow paddlers at Quapaw Canoe Company at 291 Sunflower Avenue in Clarksdale, Mississippi at 6:00 am. The two-day adventure will take paddlers from Rosedale to Greenville through some of the wildest areas of the Lower Mississippi River to benefit the Mississippi Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association.

“This is an absolute adventure that participants will never forget,” said Plunkett. “John Ruskey is known around the country for his guides on the Lower Mississippi in his 30-ft voyageur style canoes. Folks don’t even have to paddle, just ride and enjoy!”
