Post date: May 28, 2019 2:34:45 PM

Louisville Metro hosts the Mayor's Hike, Bike and Paddle Festival on Memorial Day and Labor Day at the Great Lawn along the Ohio River in downtown Louisville. This popular event attracts thousands of participants to hike 5K, bike 12.5 miles or paddle on the Ohio River in this family friendly event. Booths hosted by local organizations focus on outdoor activities. Salt River Watershed Watch hosted a booth, staffed by Mark Ayers and Karen Schaffer. Thanks to generous support from the Virginia Environmental Endowment, we purchased a poster, easel and small magnets. Brochures and SRWW Basin Report Card were handed out. Over 40 people visited our booth to learn more about SRWW and several signed up to become volunteers.
