Riverkeeper group prepares for 8th annual River Trek

            The Apalachicola Riverkeeper is getting ready for its annual trek down the river from Chattahoochee to the Apalachicola Bay.

The 8th annual RiverTrek will include 20 participants who will either paddle the 107 length of the river or bike their way beside the river.

The program is designed to raise resources and awareness for the protection of the river.

The trek will take five days to complete.

The journey will begin Tuesday, October the 6th just below the Jim Woodruff Dam in Chattahoochee and end on October the 10th at Riverfront Park in Apalachicola.

The trekkers are also raising money to support the Apalachicola Riverkeeper.

Each paddler is currently gathering sponsors—you can find out about each participant and donate to the cause by going on-line to apalachicolariverkeeper.org/rivertrek.
