SUMMARY:2022 Delaware River Sojourn: "The River Rocks"
DESCRIPTION:The Sojourn\, a guided paddling and camping trip on the Delaware River\, is full of fun and adventure\, offering a great time for all participants where wonderful memories are made! The purpose of the Sojourn is to heighten awareness of and appreciation for the Delaware River and its watershed\, which flows for 330 miles through New York\, New Jersey\, Pennsylvania\, and Delaware. The Sojourn combines canoeing/kayaking\, camping\, educational programs\, historical interpretation\, and more. It is for novice to experienced paddlers of all ages; participants can sign up for the whole event or for the section(s) or day(s) of their choice. The Sojourn is fully insured and sanctioned by the American Canoe Association. Each day we are accompanied by our safety team\, made up of members of the National Canoe Safety Patrol. Sojourners are like an extended family\, and many participants join in the fun year after year\, whether it’s for a day or two\, or the whole event. It is a great way to get outdoors\, meet new people or reconnect with old friends\, and enjoy nature – a perfect “staycation” where you feel you are away but still close to home.

SUMMARY:Ensure Safe Drinking Water in Your Municipality: A webinar about PFAS
DESCRIPTION:Move Past Plastic\, MPP\, would like to invite you to a program developed to help municipalities find out if their drinking water is safe from per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination. PFAS are a large family of chemicals persistent in our environment including groundwater. \nJoin MPP to learn about this emergent contaminant that has been found in twenty seven percent of the 412 public water system sources the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP) tested in Pennsylvania.  Learn how you can help ensure that your community has safe drinking water no matter where you live. PFAS are a persistent\, “Forever” chemical found in 99% of all American’s blood and pose significant health risks to the environment and the health of people. \nIn addition to a presentation about PFAS\, we will introduce you to a Toolkit that will help you notify your municipal governing leaders and water specialist to engage them in PFAS education and request the municipality tests for PFAS in their drinking water and wastewater. \nThis Virtual Program will be held on:   \nTuesday\, March 1st\, 7-8 pm. \nWednesday March 2nd\, 12-1pm. \nThursday\, March 3rd\, 7-8 pm. \n(Select one date and time) Register
