Green Drinks for October in Georgetown

Myrtle Beach Green Drinks is a monthly happy hour series hosted by local organizations who are providing solutions to environmental concerns. Enjoy some socialization, education, and networking.
 
October's host is the Black-Sampit Riverkeeper! We're celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Clean Water Act and want you to know all of your Clean Water Team at Winyah Rivers Alliance. Come join us and meet Erin Donmoyer, your Black-Sampit Riverkeeper, and learn about the issues she is tackling in her watersheds.
In case that name sounds familiar Erin is the niece of Waccamaw Audubon's founder, David Donmoyer.
 
Bring your friends, learn about local issues, and find out how you can be a part of the solution. This event is FREE and open to the public so bring your friends and family! We look forward to meeting you!
