2021 Paddle-a-thon, Team Long Haul

In 2020 the Ipswich River saw one of the worst drought conditions since record keeping began and this month a report issued by the American Rivers advocacy group listed the Ipswich as the 8th most endangered river in America. You can read about that story here: https://www.wbur.org/earthwhile/2021/04/13/ipswich-river-endangered-list 

This year Team Long Haul is once again planning to paddle the full length of the Ipswich river to raise funds for the Ipswich River Watershed Association and the important work they do to raise awareness and take action to protect this vitally important natural resource. We were able to raise $2,700 to benefit the IRWA last year and with your help we're hoping to break through the $3,500 mark. 

If you've ever spent time on the Ipswich you know how important this natural resource is to the wildlife that lives in and around it as well as the communities that benefit from the clean water it provides.
