Hi friend – 

As we transition from summer to fall, you’re likely looking for family friendly activities for you and your loved ones. Fortunately, River Days are in full swing! 

River Days is a month-long series of events organized by 23 nature centers located across Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey who are members of the Alliance for Watershed Education of the Delaware River. These events feature all kinds of fun and educational activities like tours, hikes, and cleanups that connect us to the waterways we depend on.

This year’s lineup includes nature walks, clean-ups, and festivals!
