Set up for Patriot Paddle Out event

This is the first time Patriot Paddle Out will be held

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — On Sunday morning, organizers were getting everything ready for the first ever Patriot Paddle Out event that will be taking place on July 4th.

The event honors military service members and their families by inviting people to swim out from North Beach on their surfboards to the U.S.S.Lexington for a special ceremony.

It will begin at 9:00 a.m. in front of Fajitaville, and long boards, short boards, boogie boards, and kayaks are welcome as well.

There will be swim guides in the water, but organizers said it is recommended that attendees know how to swim and that proper safety equipment is worn.
