Ready to get your feet wet and spend a day exploring nature with fellow aquatic hobbyists? Join GWAPA and our friends from JRAS for a fun-filled collecting trip at the Hardware River as we search for native aquatic plants, fish, and other fascinating freshwater critters! Whether you’re a seasoned collector or trying it for the first time, this is a fantastic opportunity to learn, share techniques, and enjoy a day outdoors with great company.

Don’t Forget to Bring:
• A valid Virginia fishing license (required for all participants)
• Sunscreen
• A hat
• Plenty of fluids to stay hydrated
• Snacks
• Collection containers, buckets, or bags for your finds
• A change of clothes
• A towel
• Shoes you don’t mind getting wet and muddy

Expect to get a little muddy, discover some hidden aquatic treasures, and have plenty of laughs along the way. Whether you come home with a few new plants or simply great memories, it’s always a fun day in the field.

Come join us for an adventure—you never know what we’ll find!

Keep coming back for exact meeting location closer to the trip!
