SAVE-THE-DATE

May 14, 2009 at Park Tavern at Piedmont Park

Tickets go on sale April 3, 2009

 

Mark your calendars and save the date for the 13th Annual River Revival – scheduled for May 14th at Park Tavern. Last year's River Revival set records for attendance (over 700 people) and funds raised ($80,000). We are expecting nothing less than a spectacular evening for 2009! Check back to our website frequently for updates.

The purpose of the event is to raise funds and awareness for UCR’s work to protect and preserve the Chattahoochee River. UCR is dedicated to protecting and restoring the Chattahoochee River Basin—drinking water source for 3.5 million people. We work to advocate and secure the preservation and stewardship of the Chattahoochee River, its tributaries and watershed, for the people, fish and wildlife that depend on the river system.

This year’s River Revival will again kick off the Save the Hooch campaign sponsored by SweetWater Brewery. Through this campaign, a portion of proceeds from the sale of SweetWater beers between Memorial Day weekend and July 4th, as well as sales of paper fish at participating bars and restaurants, will go to support UCR’s mission.
