A Cruise through History on the Delaware River

September 21, 2023 at 7:30 pm

Part of our Heritage Lecture Series, Gary Letcher, author of Paddlers’ Guide to the Delaware River takes us on an illustrative tour through history on and along our beautiful river. Beginning with various craft, and their pilots, that plied its waters from earliest times to the present day, he springboards into select events that  mark the river community still today.

Gary Letcher has paddled the Delaware for more than 50 years.  The first edition of Canoeing the Delaware was published in 1985, with three subsequent editions. After a career in environmental law, Gary retired to Lewes, Delaware, where he often serves as an instructor at the Lifelong Learning Institute associated with the University of Delaware

Free registration.  Lecture is via Zoom.
