The Crossing, a charitable fund raising event held the second Saturday every August is a fun filled event for the young and young at heart! Swim, kayak, canoe, raft or use your imagination to come up with a new mode of transportation! Swimmers and non-powered vessels traverse the one mile open water span adjacent to Eaton’s Ferry Bridge, starting at Morningstar Marina and ending at Watersview Restaurant. Swimming across Lake Gaston isn’t your thing? No Problem! The Crossing also includes a bridge walk! Participants walk across Eaton’s Ferry Bridge from Morningstar Marina to Watersview. Come out to The Crossing and help raise funds to support our community - See you there! Note powered vessels are not allowed to participate.
