river tours

Rocking the Boat has been creating river tours since the summer of 2007. The tours were created to get the public to use the river more and show the community that there are ways to get connected to their local resources. Rocking the Boat students and Job Skill Apprentices researched all the information for the tours by searching the internet, looking in our books, working with other youth groups and talking to local experts to confirm that all the information was accurate. The river tours were also created to teach people the history of the Bronx River, current ecological issues and how they can help.
