August 25, 2018 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

**Canceled due to unsafe water levels and lack of water visibility** Join us for an exciting opportunity to see the incredible world beneath the surface of one of our treasured Harford County waterways, Deer Creek. With our special host – professional creek snorkeler, author, and Executive Director at NorthBay Adventure, Keith Williams, we will put on goggles and breathe through snorkels as we explore the underwater world of wildlife in a creek, a view that few people have ever experienced!
We will meet in the gravel parking lot to the north of the Churchville Aberdeen Testing Area at the corner of Route 136 and Harmony Church Road, Churchville, Maryland..

Details:
* Cost is $10 per person. Additional donations welcome! Price includes use of one set of goggles and a snorkel. See link to purchase tickets prior to event. Limited availability.
* Participation is limited due to space constraints and available sets of goggles / snorkels. First come first served (see link for purchase)
* All ages, those under 16 must be accompanied by an adult
* Participants must be able to swim, the water will be fairly shallow but deeper pockets may exist and the creek does have a swift current in certain areas
* Shoes and swimwear that covers most of the body are strongly recommended since rocks and possible debris can be sharp or slippery- old sneakers, water shoes, or sandals that can be secured (flip flops are not ideal).
* Waterproof cameras or GoPro type action cameras will give you some fun photos and video to bring home. We recommend straps so you don’t lose your camera.
* Please bring towels and anything you might need to warm up after the snorkeling. There is not a changing area or rest rooms at this site. There is a Wawa and Royal Farm store approximately 5 minutes north on Route 1 and 136.
*** We will cancel / reschedule event if thunderstorms are expected or water conditions are not safe / suitable for snorkeling ***
