Excitement is Building!

Big thanks to everyone who's helping either build excitement for Mountain to Sea or who made a financial contribution in honor of the trip (or both!), which in turn will support Hawk Mountain Sanctuary. We are so grateful for your support!!!!

Shout-out to Kathy Lauer-Williams who wrote a great article in The Morning Call with photos by Kevin Mingora (Fri, Nov 19), thank you both! The piece helped generate even more exposure, and hopefully will help us meet the $10,000 goal before December 1st departure. 

To read this article click here now, and check out the great pix Kevin took of my practice run at Mauch Chunk Lake (photo, left). Kevin, your photo really caught people's attention!

Another thanks to our partners at the Schuylkill River National and State Heritage Area, the same folks who bring you the Schuylkill River Sojourn. Now they are helping to support the Mountain-to-Sea journey and are sharing the news with their Schuylkill River Heritage Area network.

Their book Along the Schuylkill River was written by their own Laura Catalano and Kurt Zwikl, and is our official go-to guide on the historic places we'll pass during the journey. For more information on the book, click here or visit http://www.schuylkillriver.org/. We're excited to blog about the cultural history along the river, and this book is an incredible resource.

Looking forward to sharing more information on the trip's ITINERARY and our other partners, friends and supporters in the days leading up the trip.

Until then, thank you again for JOINING THE JOURNEY!!!
