This is the last Sojourn Sponsored event of the season, and is where the Sojourn Organizers annual networking congress takes place. More info will follow on the congress as well for those who are interested, in a future post.

Make sure to get out a enjoy Kipona Fest this weekend if you are in the Harrisburg or Central PA region. This Labor Day weekend festival has lots going on such as a chili-cookoff, a Pow-Wow, and Arts Fest and the Dick Reese Canoe Races on Monday morning. POWR and DCNR Sojourns will be sponsoring a boat in the races this year once again.
