Try a Sojourn .... Virtually
Perhaps not surprisingly, many people still do not know what a sojourn refers to when they come across the term. Simply put, to sojourn is "to live for a short time in a place; stay temporarily" according to wordsmyth.net. So a PA River Sojourn is a temporary stay within the boundaries of one of Pennsylvania's waterways. Living, traveling, eating, playing, learning, and doing while a part of a watershed and an ecological and social community.

If you'd like to experience that firsthand, but are not yet sure about taking part in an actual Sojourn trip, why not check one out virtually? Greentreks.org has produced a wonderful webpage full of multi-media explorations and experiences from Sojourns in Pennsylvania.

Audio clips, video clips, still photos and more are available to entice you out onto the waterways of PA. One of the newest productions, Sojourns, A River Adventure, is a 26 minute video (available on VHS or DVD) that "illustrates how recreational activities like sojourns motivate people to protect the rivers by showing them just how valuable our resources are."
