Heritage Day, Plantersville, AL

In May, Captain Kidd and I had a booth at my hometown's Heritage Day. It was a very interesting and fun day where I told the story of my father and Captain Kidd while also promoting cancer awareness. The American Cancer Society gave me a ton of pamphlets on cancer awareness and a few t-shirts to give away.


The display of Captain Kidd's travels around the world.


My brother, Alex, helped with the display



Captain Kidd also checked out the other booths at the event.


Handmade candles made from soy and beeswax.




Homemade bags and quilts



Homemade organic soaps


Make your own hygiene bag for the homeless in Atlanta.


This was a great opportunity to get Captain Kidd's name and cause out to more people and I am very thankful for being able to do this! It's been difficult to keep up with Captain Kidd recently with classes, work, and other issues but his other trips will be added shortly! Captain Kidd traveled through the Blue Ridge Mountains this summer and recently came back from Africa. The second Captain Kidd is currently in Italy and will be heading to London soon to see the Olympics. 

Thank you everyone for the support I've had in this so far! It's been an amazing two years and I am still amazed at all of the places he has been. I can't wait to see where he will end up next!
