POWR, is pleased to announce that our successful river sojourn project will return in 2013. Through this project, POWR provides technical assistance and mini-grant funding to local organizations to host educational paddling events on Pennsylvania’s rivers.
Applications are due March 27, 2013.
New for 2013, the grant application, administration, and report will all be conducted online.
So, let’s get started! Read the Sojourn Organizers guide, consider our program’s general requirements, and fill out an online application!
Here at POWR, we are ready and available to answer any questions and provide any support that we can to help you complete your application. Please contact Josh Karns at 717-230-8044 x305 or at jkarns@pawatersheds.org with any questions, or just to let us know that you are working on an application.
Also, as soon as your sojourn dates are set and the event is a “go,” please let us know. We want to do everything we can to promote your event, and many sojourns will be announced prior to the final grant decisions.
This project is financed in part by a grant from the Community Conservation Partnerships Program, Keystone Recreation Park and Conservation Fund, under the administration of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Bureau of Recreation and Conservation.

Hi Josh,
We will again be running our Perkiomen Creek Sojourn. It will be held Saturday, June 8, 2013 with a rain date of Saturday, June 15. We had a blast last time and are looking to add even more educational components this time. Look for me in your email as March evolves. We will be applying for a grant as it is key to the success of our event. Thanks for contacting us. Please use my email in the future for all correspondence with the Conservancy.
Enjoy the day! Trudy
