In the past, we have raised enough money at this dinner to be able to fund a large portion of our programs. As our biggest fundraiser of the year, last years dinner was responsible for funding a quarter of all the expenses that go into Swim Guide!

On top of a delicious, unique meal, our silent auction never goes unnoticed. This year the line-up will feature items & experiences from local businesses such as Atomic Bar & Lounge, O’Henry’s, Highpoint Climbing Gym, Red Mountain Park, Earthborn Pottery, and SO MUCH MORE.

On top of this event funding our work to protect the Coosa, it is also responsible for networking with some of our favorite river folk in the area! That’s why we take the time every year to bring together like-minded folks from Birmingham and beyond to talk about issues facing the river, our favorite places to cast a line & where the best swimming holes are in your neck of the woods.

 

Whether you enjoy the Coosa by paddling, fishing or swimming, we can all come together and say “Cheers to the Coosa!”
