Celebrate Earth Month!

Throw on some waders and join Neuse Riverkeeper Samantha Krop and our friends at Partners for Environmental Justice and Walnut Creek Wetlands Center for an educational walk in one of Raleigh's most beloved and imperiled urban creeks. Learn about what makes Little Rock Creek, and the greater Walnut Creek watershed, so special, the water-quality challenges it faces and how community members, nonprofits and the city are working together to protect our waterways.

Come on out for a brew at Lynnwood Brewing Concern on April 28, where $1 per pint of beer served will be donated to Sound Rivers.

From Lynnwood Brewing Concern: "Every Tuesday, $1 per pint goes to a local charity. You drink, we donate, and together, we make an impact. From rescuing pups with Perfectly Imperfect Pups (PIPs) to funding community programs, every pint pours back into Raleigh."

The event runs all day; staff and board members will be there to toast you from 5 to 9 p.m.!
