Riverpalooza

Join us Saturday, May 17, 2025 in beautiful Apalachicola, FL for the Second Annual Riverpalooza — a day dedicated to giving back to the waters that give us so much!

Kick off the day between 8A - 12P (EST)
with our Community Coastal Clean-Up!
Grab your gloves and join Apalachicola Riverkeeper staff and volunteers by boat, bike, or on foot as we work together to protect the health of the Apalachicola River and Bay. All participants receive a free raffle ticket to win a Kevlar kayak.

Then celebrate your hard work starting at 12 PM
at The Apalachicola Yacht Club for an afternoon of:

Live music from local favorites: Tommy Cooper, The Ukulilies, Funky Taters, Clayton Mathis, and Chris Matechik

Fresh oysters from Water is Life Oysters

Guest speaker Josh McLawhorn, director of the award-winning documentary Unfiltered: The Truth about Oysters

A raffle drawing for a Kevlar Seda Tango tandem kayak and trailer, a high-performance boat perfect for paddling adventures (clean-up volunteers receive free raffle tickets!). Tickets are $10. Raffle tickets are available now — and participants do not need to be present to win the kayak and trailer.

Help us make an even bigger splash!

While clean-up participants receive free raffle tickets, we encourage everyone to support Apalachicola Riverkeeper’s mission with a suggested $10 donation at the door — every dollar helps protect the river we all love.
