But on Saturday, Kayakers let the night at Fishpond during the Glow on the Pond event. Now in its second year, the fundraising event for the upcoming Letra County Mountain Heritage Festival welcomes Kayakers to take part in a group paddle to the center of the lake in kayaks decorated with just about anything one could imagine, including of course, lots of lights. Organizer Chris Caudill, a Mountain Heritage Festival committee member, said the event was inspired by a similar event in nearby Pound, Virginia. Last year I threw it together in about a week and a half and it was very successful. Everybody loved it. This year, I had a little more time to work on it. I had some different categories and the best overall and had about the same amount of people show up with kayaks this year as I did last year, but the audience was a whole lot more and people really seemed to enjoy it. Last year about 19 kayaks took part. This year that number increased to 23 and Glow on the Pond also drew a large crowd of spectators anxious to see the lights from the kayaks lighting up Fishpond. It was a good turnout. Like I said, they had all kinds of people come and sitting on the grass and watching. My favorite part of seeing, I guess, of the event would be how much work people actually put into a kayak compared to last year. Last year, we had some good kayaks and had a good time. This year, there was more lights. There was less glow sticks, which glow sticks is fine. It's cool, but people, you could tell, put a lot more effort into it this year. Cottle said he's already planning for and looking forward to the third glow on the pond in 2018. In Letcher County, Chris Anderson, EKB News.
