A Grant for Green Paddlers

Since 2002, the ACA has partnered with L.L. Bean to sponsor the Club Fostered Stewardship (CFS) Program--and we're thrilled to continue this partnership in 2014!

CFS grants are available for projects that utilize volunteers in efforts to:

• protect, maintain, and restore recreational waterways 
• provide for or improve public access
• enhance safe navigation 

Application packets available now!

Over 6,000 paddlers participated in a waterway clean-up this past year and removed 231,322 pounds of trash from waterways. Keep up the good work, paddlers!
