From July 23 to Aug.1 you can paddle, sail or walk/run for your regional environment while competing to win prizes or just “raise your paddle” in our online auction starting July 18. Paddle for the Sound celebrates all that makes our Long Island Sound region truly spectacular.
Support the great outdoors—in your own backyard! Make it a family event and raise money for every mile you paddle, sail or walk to benefit your regional
environmental leader: Save the Sound. Your support keeps your Long Island Soundkeeper on the water tracking down pollution at its source; prevents trash from making its way into our waterways; protects our native and migratory fish species; conserves our crucial open spaces; and so much more. And this summer you can make it happen just by getting outside and paddleboarding, kayaking, sailing or walking.
Visit www.savethesound.org/Paddle2021 to register. Want to participate but not sure where to get in the water? Visit our Sound Health Explorer, with new features that allow you to find all publicly accessible kayak and boat launches in Connecticut and New York. While you’re there check out your favorite local beaches to see how they rank for water quality so you can enjoy your summer knowing you’re safe.
