Join Annie Richards, Chester Riverkeeper, for a guided paddle launching from the heart of Chestertown. This town-based expedition offers a unique opportunity to experience the beauty of the upper Chester River in the fall while exploring the important connections between our town centers and the health of our rivers.
Paddling through this peaceful stretch of river, participants will learn how land use decisions in our communities-from streets and storm drains to green spaces-shape river access, habitat, and water quality. Along the way, Annie will share insights about restoration efforts, river stewardship, and how healthy towns and healthy rivers go hand-in-hand.
