Welcome, welcome, welcome, this is John Van Lunen and this show is called Treasures of the Outer Banks, the podcast that celebrates the people and places that make this beach special. This show is about community, history, and adventure. And if you love the Outer Banks I think you’ll enjoy this podcast. On this show I talk to locals, historians, authors, business owners, and more. We talk about the people that came before us, the people that are doing great things right now, and finding adventure on the Outer Banks. I’ve had the pleasure to interview dozens of amazing guests. If I can point you to a particular interview that I think you’ll find very interesting, please check out Episode #003 with Wykie Wise. Wykie’s story, growing up here in the 1950’s, is amazing. His memories of classic Outer Banks landmarks; like living in Nags Head Woods, attending the single room school house in Corolla, driving on Jockeys Ridge, and hanging out at the Nags Head casino, are incredible. Wykie was a wealth of information. You can find his story, and others, right here on the Treasures of the Outer Banks podcast. My name is John Van Lunen. Make it a good one.
