Confluence: The Blue Trail Connection

Our Waccamaw Riverkeeper, Cara Schildtknecht, has partnered with North Inlet – Winyah Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve and American Rivers to present the 2021 Waccamaw Conference. We’ve got a month long celebration planned, beginning on World Water Day (March 22nd) through Earth Day (April 22nd).

Our 2021 Waccamaw Conference is designed to help you discover the Waccamaw River Blue Trail. And we’re hosting a series of events including webinars, virtual events, outdoor activities, and interactive competitions. Each week we will visit a different section of the watershed and you are invited to come along on our trip!

We launch virtually on Monday, March 22nd at 1 pm via Zoom. Meet your hosts, view the calendar, and learn how you can get involved and travel with us along the Waccamaw River Blue Trail. Click here to register>>
