The staff at Catawba Riverkeeper has invited friends and family to an exclusive fundraiser on Saturday, August 6 at The Boathouse.
We hope you’ll join us for some on the water fun, beer, food, and music as we raise money to support Catawba Riverkeeper’s work to protect our waterways.
Kayak tours will be hosted throughout the day with a party afterwards from 6-9pm with live music, a food truck, and cold beverages! You are welcome to bring a picnic lunch or dinner with you and purchase beer, non-alcoholic beverages and ice cream inside The Boathouse.
