People
June 15-21
Plans for the Susquehanna
Sojourn are being finalized and include participation by our local community
groups, museums, and towns! This educational and awareness-raising event
involves a group of canoeists paddling a segment of the Susquehanna River,
camping on her shores and interacting with local towns and villages. The
event promotes environmental stewardship and inspiring conservation of
our natural resources. This Sojourn starts at Corning, New York and ends
at Camp Lackawanna at the Vosburg Neck near Tunkhannock in Wyoming County.
EMHR staff and project partners will be cooperating to make this Sojourn
a mutually beneficial event for the canoeists and the river towns and
heritage sites from Sayre to Vosburg.
Following the EMHR board of directors meeting on Wednesday, June 18,
EMHR staff and volunteers will convene at the Ulster village boat
access to serve lunch, unveil the River Water Trail sign, and offer a
brief program. We invite our partners to join us at the Sojourn on June
18th to learn and share with this special group of visitors to the Endless
Mountains!
