June is Pennsylvania Rivers Month

With over 54,000 miles of streams and rivers crisscrossing the state of Pennsylvania, the variety is impressive. Help clean up and protect our beautiful rivers in the Annual River Sweep of Pennsylvania, scheduled for Saturday June 20, 2009, up and down the Ohio River, from its origin in Pittsburgh, to Cairo, Illinois.

Speaking of rivers, consider exploring Pittsburgh and the surrounding countryside by kayak or canoe, with our guide to Paddling Western Pennsylvania Waterways or visit our rivers and bridges up close and personal in our Bridges of Pittsburgh photo gallery.
