Stokes Outdoors

Stokes Outdoors Blogging about outdoor activities and issues in Stokes County. This page is looking for a new owner. All content posted here before 2017 can be blamed on him.

Permanently closed.

Message the current page owner if you're interested in taking it over. The Stokes Outdoors page began as an information outlet of the Stokes County office of the Dan River Basin Association. When that office was closed in 2013 this page became a personal project of Dale Swanson, former DRBA staff member, a Stokes County resident, and enthusiastic river rat, until he left Stokes County in 2016. The

website associated with this page was the blog of DRBA's Stokes County office. Find out more about DRBA at

This could have been shot in Stokes County as easily as it was shot and experienced in Transylvania County.
But Stokes still doesn't have an Economic Development Director much less a Tourism Director ... after over 3 YEARS! The current long-standing Stokes Board of County Commissioners needs to be replaced.

Andrea and Chris came to North Carolina to see their first waterfall, a feat in and of itself for parents who had never taken a vacation for two. But they di...

Readers and fans of the Stokes Outdoors page!

This is your recently absent page admin, Dale Swanson. I have had to leave the area for gainful employment and just don't have time to keep the page updated.

Rather than shut it down I'm accepting applications for a new administrator. With over 1,200 followers it would be stupid to just let it die.

Please submit links to pages you currently manage as well as a short essay explaining 1) your qualifications, 2) what you'd like to do with it, and 3) the outdoor adventure sports in which you are actively involved.

Looking forward to some interesting reading!

Send applications as messages to the page ... not to me directly.

Thursday evenings at the new Arts Place of Stokes beginning on June 1, 2017

A perfect way to begin a long weekend camping, hiking, cycling, paddling, or whatever outdoor adventures you find here!

Look at all these great performers. This is going to be an excellent series.
