PA RIVER SOJOURNS IN MAY
POWR and DCNR co-sponsor the PA River Sojourn program which offers 12 educational and paddling trips on Pennsylvania's waterways. Three of these trips fall during May and would make wonderful ways for you to celebrate Watershed Awareness Month.

The Swatara Creek Sojourn just east of Harrisburg takes place on May 1 and 2. This years trip will begin at the Union Canal Canoe Rentals site (where you can get a rental canoe if needed for the trip) and end at the Susquehanna River.

The Allegheny-Kiskiminetas-Conemaugh Rivers Sojourn takes place on May 20th through the 23rd. This sojourn is a unique opportunity to sample three rivers located in close proximity to each other during one trip.

The Clarion River Sojourn is on May 21st and May 22nd, so you'll have to choose between this one and the Alle-Kiski-Conni which has overlapping dates, but either would be a good choice. The Clarion takes you through and near the Allegheny National Forest region of northern PA, and if you haven't been before, do yourself a favor and visit the only national forest in Pennsylvania, by canoe.
