In light of COVID, we decided to take our Verde River Runoff VIRTUAL this year. We offered our supporters all over the country a chance to explore their favorite water bodies while paddling in honor of Friends. This was a unique opportunity for us to connect with paddlers and nature lovers from all over the world, allowing us to see different habitats, wildlife and of course, water! From Delaware to California, people got out on the water in honor of Friends of the Verde River.
We were so excited by all the beautiful photos and kind feedback that we received from our supporters. Our participants’ feedback even convinced us to include a virtual element in upcoming Runoffs! Thank you to everyone who participated! Here are a few shots from supporters outside the Valley:
