December 4th: Paul Mellor's experience down the mighty Mississippi River

Join us on December 4th to meet Rhode Island resident, Paul Mellor.

To say that Paul had quite the summer in 2024 is an understatement. Beginning at Lake Itasca, Minnesota, Paul paddled the length of the 2300-mile Mississippi River to the Gulf. During that time from top to bottom he encountered beaver dams and log jams, floating debris and flying fish, bugs and barges, freighters and gators, wind and wonder, but as Paul says, the lasting memories came from the people he met along the way.
