COME PADDLE WITH THE APALACHICOLA RIVERKEEPER

Come join us the 4th Saturday of every month (starting in January 2012) for a paddling trip in the Apalachicola watershed. The trips are free to members and $30 for non-members. Members can come go on as many trips as they like. Your guides will be Riverkeeper Dan Tonsmeire, Deputy Director Meg Nelson, or one of our great volunteer guides, Tom Herzog or David Morse.

We are convinced that to better protect the Apalachicola ecosystem we must increase the number of folks who get on the River, its floodplain, creeks, sloughs, and tributaries. It’s an amazing place with much to offer (view the "Paddling the Apalachicola" movie to see for yourself). The more folks that understand and appreciate it the more folks there’ll be who’ll support its protection.

Coming soon: Apalachicola River Blueway Trail. The Apalachicola Riverkeeper in conjunction with the Greenways and Trails Division of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection will be launching the Apalachicola River Blueway Trail on our website. The site will include maps and information on paddling the beautiful Apalachicola River, its tributaries and byways.

Spaces on the Apalachicola Riverkeeper’s 4th Saturday paddle trips can be reserved by calling us at 850-653-8936 or emailing riverkeeper@apalachicolariverkeeper.org.

Free for Members of the Apalachicola Riverkeeper (on a space available basis)

Non-members $30
