Eight Mile RiverFest
What is RiverFest? RiverFest is a free public
event that the Eightmile River Watershed Committee hosts every other year to
celebrate our Wild & Scenic Watershed.
Who is invited? We invite the public and extend
an invitation to our local conservation/community partners to have a display or
activity at the event. Upon the retirement of the Eight Mile River
Band, we will be welcoming the Hosmer Mountain Boys and
their bluegrass music, the Moodus Sportsmen's Club provides the
chili, chowder and cider and Eightmile board members provide the
cookies....LOTs of COOKIES! And it is all FREE!
Thames Valley TU will have a display at Eightmile RiverFest 2023! The event is Saturday, October 14, 1-4pm at Devil's Hopyard State Park in East Haddam. We will be promoting TU and our chapter to the public with discussion displays and pictures. We also plan to do some fly tying demos and fly casting demos and lessons for anyone who is interested.
