“Keeping the Chattahoochee” Book Study
Join Georgia Interfaith Power & Light (GIPL) and Chattahoochee Riverkeeper's founding director, Sally Sierer Bethea, for a two-week study on her recent book Keeping the Chattahoochee.
Bethea was one of the first women in America to become a “riverkeeper”—a vocal defender of a specific waterway who holds polluters accountable. In Keeping the Chattahoochee, she tells stories that range from joyous and funny to frustrating―even alarming―to illustrate what it takes to save an endangered river. Her tales are triggered by the regular walks she takes through a forest to the Chattahoochee over the course of a year, finding solace and kinship in nature.
The study group will meet via Zoom on April 23 and 30 from 6:30-7:30 p.m. Learn more and register below.
