Marshall is a 20 year old native of Hatteras Island born and raised in Kinnakeet. On January 30, 2008 he was admitted to Pitt Memorial Hospital in Greenville, NC in a coma. Marshall has suffered a brain injury due to an accidental drug overdose. Marshall is now doing very well. His mental state is just fine and he took his first steps May 9th!! Unfortunately, when Marshall was admitted to the hospital he did not have medical insurance. As you can imagine, he now has medical expenses that the family cannot absorb.

Hatteras Island beginning to liven up!

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

Although we enjoyed an unusually mild winter here in Hatteras, the winters can still seem a bit isolated at times. Well, okay maybe more than a bit…

So much is closed, and the island seems to hibernate as we impatiently await the opening of businesses and the arrival of visitors. That time is upon us and with Memorial Day right around the corner, it’s nice to see Hatteras slowly coming back to life.

Despite a little rain here and there, the weather is becoming consistently warmer and traffic a little thicker as we advance closer to the season. We experienced the first burst of activity last weekend with a fishing tournament in Buxton, the annual Pow Wow in Frisco, and bike week in the Outer Banks. A little bit of a lull has ensued, but there are a couple of things happening this week for anyone looking for something to do….

  • Open Mic starts at the Fish House in Buxton this Wednesday, May 7th, at 7pm
  • Jewelry Expo at Indian Town Gallery in Frisco this weekend, May 10th & 11th
  • EZ & the Heat playing Saturday, May 11th at the Sandbar & Grille in Buxton
