It’s the season to get out on the water with our Waterkeepers! This summer you can sign up for paddle trips, river cleanups, swim and cycle events, and other volunteer opportunities with our Waterkeepers throughout the region. We have gathered all of these activities on our website calendar to make it super easy for you to find what’s happening on your local waterway. Get out and connect with your local waterway – and your local Waterkeeper!
