The following was posted on the iwindsurf Northwest forum. I am posting it here to accommodate the OP.
"On june 29 a SUP paddle was found floating in the middle of the river close to Swell City. Thinking the paddle might have some connection to Big Winds it was taken there to be returned to its rightful owner.
Not sure this is the most appropriate site to post this, but I am unaware of any other popular forums. Hoping this information can be passed where it might help.
Thanks"
