Alliance Bay and River Sojourns

Since 1990, the Alliance has worked with local river conservation organizations across the Bay watershed to hold week-long paddling and camping trips that celebrate rich history and ecology of the rivers that make the Chesapeake Bay unique. Throughout the week, Sojourners build comradery through daily paddles and programs and share new experiences with others on the trip. Each day, paddlers cover about ten miles of the river, stopping to meet with local communities and their elected officials along the way. Each evening, the Alliance and partner organizations coordinate group meals and environmental programs designed to educate paddlers and their guests about the river's importance to local communities and the Bay region as a whole.
