KPFA BOOTH at KENAI RIVER FESTIVAL

KPFA BOOTH at KENAI RIVER FESTIVAL

The fishing season is just around the corner and there is no better way to get excited for the 2013 season than by celebrating the river that provides for us each year.

The Kenai River Festival is happening: We want to show the community how we are proud of what we do and that we love the Kenai for all she gives to us.

Kenai River Festival – June 7-9

Kenai Watershed Forum is proud to present the 23rd annual Kenai River Festival as a community celebration of the Kenai River. Each year the Kenai Watershed Forum strives to organize the FREE community festival to celebrate the Kenai River by coordinating activities that focus on keeping the river healthy and productive for generations to come. This year is no exception! We are excited to bring the many facets of the festival to the community again this year including:
