Keeping our waters clean
and healthy
Conestoga River Club is a nonprofit dedicated to education, conservation and improvement, including litter cleanups, restoration work with volunteers, more river access and better launch and take-out points.
Conservation
The Conestoga river flows through our school districts, our backyards and our lives. It is the thread that connects us as a community as we share those happy moments in her waters. Whether it be fishing, kayaking, tubing, creek stomping, lying in the shade and listening to her soothing voice or sharing in the rich history of the river, the Conestoga River Club stands ready to make our river clean, healthy and accessible to all, now and in the future.
Education
The Conestoga River Club's mission is to educate all on the care of our natural resources, clean water, and recreational possibilities.
Community
We see big things in our future! Through fundraisers, petitions, and volunteer efforts we will make our concerns heard by the powers that be.
The primary focus of our efforts will initially be focused on river access points as they pertain to the Conestoga River Water Trail, which is the stretch of the river from Brownstown below 772 to Safe Harbor.
There were originally 15 public access points along the recognized water trail, currently 2 are inaccessible and 5 others are in such bad shape as to be virtually inaccessible. We do not have even one ADA compliant river access point or public boat launch. We want to see this change! We believe everyone in the community should be able to access our beloved river.
Stewardship
Conestoga River Club members are the eyes and ears on the ground of our beautiful waters. Join us at a volunteer clean up event, community fundraiser, or paddle the trail.
