Explore the Gunpowder Watershed Challenge
This September, we challenge you to spend time outdoors to support your local land trust and watershed non-profit, Gunpowder Valley Conservancy (GVC)! (gunpowdervalleyconservancy.org). Discover the beauty of the Gunpowder Watershed of Baltimore County - our connection to the Chesapeake Bay.
The Explore the Gunpowder Watershed Challenge is a month-long virtual event from September 1 - 30, 2021. All participants will receive an event t-shirt and are encouraged to share their adventures on social media with #GVCExplore.
We are also encouraging participants to:
- Complete 45 miles of hiking, biking, horseback riding, paddling, etc. This is the length of the Gunpowder Watershed and a great symbolic goal. OR
- Raise $250 for the Gunpowder Valley Conservancy on your personal campaign page. Let your friends and family know you support clean water!
Participants that meet one or both of these goals will automatically be entered into a raffle for gift card prizes (details TBA).
