Asheville -- Join us for a kick-off celebration for our new partnership with French Broad River Brewery from 12-6 pm on Sunday, July 28! There will be live music by reggae band Chalwa, from 3-6 pm. and $1 per pint sold will benefit RiverLink’s work for the French Broad. 

Come learn about our Reduce Rain Runoff campaign and how to protect our rivers and streams by reducing rain runoff. Stormwater runoff, meaning water from storms that falls onto hard surfaces like rooftops and parking lots and enters the French Broad via storm drains and river tributaries, carries sediment, pollution, and harmful bacteria that negatively impact water quality.
