Get ready for a night of river stories and socializing in this event benefitting our local nonprofit the Spokane Riverkeeper (SRK). At this annual fundraiser, river stories will be shared by local artists in addition to a cocktail and appetizer hour, silent auction, and year in review by the Spokane Riverkeeper. Guest speakers include Marc Fryt, Greg Gordon, Heidi Lasher, and Mery Smith.
“I think, deep inside each of us, there is a story about a river,” says Heidi Lasher, writer, SRK board member, and Out There contributor. “By sharing these stories, we understand what connects us to place and each other.”
\The evening will take place at the Spokane Convention Center from 5:30-8 p.m. The Spokane Riverkeeper organization monitors 111 miles of river, collects water data, engages in community education, removes trash, and uses law and policy to defend clean water. And they need our community support to continue. Tickets are on sale now for $85 at Spokaneriverkeeper.org.
