Join us on May 18th for Riverpalooza, a celebration of the Apalachicola River, Bay, and Floodplain!
We’ll begin the day with a community, coastal cleanup sponsored by OceanAid 360. Collect trash however you like – walk around and find trash by foot, grab you bike and pedal around, paddle the kayaks along the shoreline, or take your boat out to collect trash by boat.
In the afternoon, we’ll move over to the Apalachicola Yacht Club for a celebration with music, food, and a good time. Join us for fun and a chance to win exciting adventure gear. Music will be played throughout the day by Clayton Mathis, Chris Matechik, Flying Fish, and the Funky Taters.
In addition, we’ll be hosting a Riverpalooza Raffle that supports Apalachicola Riverkeeper’s advocacy, engagement, and outreach programs. Enter to win some great outdoor gear and other prizes!
