There is no doubt about it, the Susquehanna River offers a world of beauty and opportunity for outdoor recreation. In recent years, more people than ever have shown an interest in activities on and along our backyard river. Yet, it is not always apparent where to go or how to plan that next outdoor adventure.
One organization that is working to help fill this gap is the Susquehanna Greenway Partnership. SGP works to connect people to this treasured corridor to help provide the opportunity and resources for all to access hiking, biking, and paddling trails along our shared Susquehanna River.
This summer, SGP is raising that goal to a new level thanks to their second annual Susquehanna Greenway Outdoor Expo on Saturday from 10 a.m to 3 p.m.
Held at the Shikellamy State Park Marina in Sunbury, where the north and west branches meet, SGP is convening industry experts, outdoor professionals, and non-profit partners to share their tools, knowledge, gear, and resources with the recreating public.
There will be numerous exhibitors, from kayaking, biking, disc golf, custom rods and tackle, outdoor adventure, hammocks, photography and more.
The event will also feature opportunities to kayak on the Susquehanna River, learn how to build a tarp shelter, a family-friendly scavenger hunt, a balance bike rodeo for the kids, learn how to disc golf and other activities.
A full event schedule, map, and list of exhibitors is available at susquehannaexpo.com. You may also follow the Facebook Event for the latest announcements and updates.
The Susquehanna Greenway is a corridor of connected trails, parks, river access points, and communities, linking people to the natural and cultural treasures of the Susquehanna River within Pennsylvania. The mission of the Susquehanna Greenway Partnership is to continue to grow the Greenway by building connections along the Susquehanna River, inspiring people to engage with the outdoors, and transforming communities into places where people want to live, work, and explore.
