We need YOU this fall to help protect the Delaware River Watershed

Save the date: The third annual Delaware River Watershed Forum is set for October 5-6 and this year, the event moves to the city of Newark, Delaware.

The Forum is led by the Coalition for the Delaware River Watershed (CDRW) and the first two forums -- in Philadelphia and Bethlehem, Pa. -- provided hundreds of attendees with terrific opportunities for updates, collaboration, and work to protect the watershed of the Delaware River, encompassing four states.

Join the Coalition on the University of Delaware campus this fall for two days of information, site visits, facilitated discussions and networking. PennFuture has been a steering committee member since the Coalition's founding so we hope to see our Pennsylvania watershed and conservation colleagues there this fall. More event details are coming soon.

Visit our information page for more on the CDRW and how your organization can join with others on behalf of our waterways.

Kate Gibbons is Northeastern Pennsylvania outreach coordinator and is based in Wilkes-Barre.
