Two Events in One

We’re combining the Paddling Film Festival with our Serving the Schuylkill Appreciation Night, an annual fundraiser for Schuylkill River Greenways (SRG). As part of the night’s festivities, we will be honoring several deserving individuals and organizations for their support of SRG in our mission to connect people and communities to the Schuylkill River and Schuylkill River Trail. The awards will take place as a pre-recorded video before the paddling films viewing.
