MountainTrue, the Broad Riverkeeper, The Broad River Greenway and the NC Wildlife Resources Commission will host an in-person kickoff event at the Broad River Greenway on Saturday, August 28, for the first day of MountainTrue’s second annual Broad River Fishing Tournament. There will be games, fishing lessons and demonstrations, giveaways, and educational activities for all ages! RSVP to let us know you're coming!

Each year, MountainTrue hosts a gathering of our members to recognize and honor outstanding volunteers, vote on new board members, and reflect on a year of hard work and accomplishments. We hope you can join us to recognize and honor MountainTrue’s 2021 Southern Region Volunteer of the Year: Erica Shanks! We are excited to be gathering in person this year and hope you can come connect with us. All attendees are required to be vaccinated.
