LBK Auditorium

Ben Wegleitner with the Alabama Nature Conservancy will speak on challenges the river is facing and UAB Professor, Halley Cotton, will discuss her solo kayak adventure down the Cahaba this summer.

This event is the first in a series called CAHABA INSPIRED. These public events in November all revolve around our local river. The Cahaba River headwaters begin right here in our own Trussville Community. The Cahaba is the longest free flowing river in our state but it is quite unique in that its flows for many miles through the heart of a major urban area before continuing on its journey through some of the most beautiful and biodiverse natural areas in this country or world. As a result,
the river and its habitat experience very unique challenges.

See our events calendar for other events on November 9th and 12th.
