- **Event Description**: Join us for River Talk from the Groover: Stories, Stewardship & Season Prep—a campfire-style gathering hosted by GVORC in partnership with The Gear Junction, Moki Canyon, and Trail Life Brewing.

Set in a relaxed (yes, groover-adjacent) environment, this event brings the river community together for open conversation, shared experience, and practical insight as we head into the season. We’ll cover trip planning and permits, river regulations, stewardship practices, and real-world tips for navigating the months ahead.

This is also a chance to connect with partners supporting river users and conservation efforts. Collaborators will share brief updates on upcoming projects, events, or opportunities.

At its core, River Talk is about connection—to each other, to the river, and to the shared responsibility of protecting these places for seasons to come.
