Join the Youghiogheny Riverkeeper and Mountain Watershed Association at Falls City Pub for the 16th Annual Yough Defense Party!
Your $20 door donation includes one free drink ticket, chance at a door prize, free food, party snacks, and a great evening with friends! Please bring a covered dish if you'd like to contribute!
Musical acts this year include Randy Myers, Hemlock, and Ferncliff Collective!
We have a great silent auction coming up, with pottery, photography, handmade goods, and tons of awesome outdoor gear from Patagonia, Immersion Research, and more! Silent auctions end at 7:00 and 8:30 p.m.
Bring cash if you want to enter the kayak raffle or 50/50 drawings! We accept credit cards for everything else.
We'll also have 30th anniversary Mountain Watershed Association merch for sale, including cool five-panel hats, and Hydroflask cooler cups (cups are just $20 and include two free drinks - a crazy good deal that will help us reduce plastic waste)!
Use your cup from last year, and get a free drink ticket!
