Pennsylvania Discovery Trips: What's in Your Backyard?
July 21, 2014
Pennsylvania has more miles of rivers and streams than almost any other state in the nation, and summer is a great time to get out and experience the tremendous beauty and unique habitats our waterways have to offer.
CBF invites you to join us on an upcoming "Discovery Trip" for members and friends.
On our June trip, participants enjoyed all the wonder of the Yellow Breeches. Fantastic weather set the stage for sightings of deer, wood ducks, egrets, kingfishers, and several wood turtles.
There are two more opportunities to get out on the water--join us if you can:
1. Thursday, July 24 on the Swatara Creek in Dauphin County, 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.
2. Saturday, August 2 on the Susquehanna River near Port Treverton, from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Participants paddle a three- to five-mile stretch of a local creek, stream, or Susquehanna River. Each trip is led by CBF's Susquehanna Watershed Education Program (SWEP) staff, who provide everything you'll need for a fun and safe adventure. This includes, but is not limited to, canoes, paddles, lifejackets, snacks, and an introductory paddling instruction. Any paddling skill level is welcome, no experience necessary. These are family-fun events!
