CAMDEN, N.C. -- More than 165 men, women and children (and pets on a leash) participated in the first of what will be an annual “Dismal Days” Oct. 19, 2012 at the Dismal Swamp Park in North Carolina. "Dismal Days" kicked off with a 9 a.m. registration. A variety of activities focused on nature and recreation. This was truly a shining example of how people from all walks of life in this great Country, Commonwealth (as well as our neighbors in North Carolina), Corps and Community gathered for a day of fun.
After the run festivities continued, including a tour of the park grounds and a demonstration on how the the Canal locks work.
The historic Dismal Swamp Canal and the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal form alternative routes along the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW) between the Chesapeake Bay and Albemarle Sound. The canals and the rest of the waterway are maintained and cared for by the United States Army Corps of Engineers. The AIWW provides pleasure boaters and commercial shippers with a protected inland channel between Norfolk, Virginia and Miami, Florida. The history of these two canals, which contain the only locks along the AIWW, paints a vivid picture of the development of transportation that goes back over 200 years. It is also a fascinating tale rich in folklore and literature.
Today, the Dismal Swamp Canal is on the National Register of Historic Places as a Historic Landmark, and is also noted as a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark. In February 2004, the Dismal Swamp Canal was included in the National Park Service’s Underground Railroad Network to Freedom Program. It is maintained by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as a navigational resource along the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway.(U.S. Army photos/Pamela Spaugy)
