The City of Raleigh Parks and Recreation Superintendent reached out to the ACA for guidance on developing a river access plan for the Neuse River, currently closed for safety reasons due to a river wide log jam spanning a bridge. ACA worked to assemble key stakeholders, leveraging our connections with local canoe and kayak clubs, the River Management Society, and State Parks of North Carolina, to bring a coalition of people together to discuss the beginnings of an access plan that will focus on safety, access, and inclusion for all. For more information about this collaboration, please connect with ACA Public Policy Chief, Brett Mayer: bmayer@americancanoe.org
