On October 6, 2018, The Harpeth Conservancy (formerly the Harpeth River Watershed Association) will host its fifteenth annual RIVER SWING - Dinner, Dance and Auction fundraiser.  Co-hosted by Kathryn & Christian Currey, this year’s venue will be the beautiful River Circle Farm, the northern Williamson County home of Agneta & Brownlee Currey, nestled along the banks of the Harpeth River.

Approximately 650 guests are expected to attend this casual and festive event which celebrates the Harpeth River – the Greater Nashville Region’s State Scenic River.  As part of the Southeast’s unique freshwater river system with one of the most exceptional ecosystems on the planet, the Harpeth is home to an incredible variety of aquatic life.  Its 125 miles begins in Eagleville and flows through both rural and developed landscapes before emptying into the Cumberland River near Ashland City.  The Harpeth River Watershed includes the main river and nearly 1,000 miles of tributaries that drain an area of land approximately 870 square miles across Rutherford, Williamson, Davidson, Hickman, Dickson and Cheatham Counties.  Recreational visitors from near and far are attracted to the Harpeth River, one of Tennessee’s only completely free flowing and designated "Scenic” rivers, one of the most ecologically, culturally, historically, and recreationally significant rivers in Tennessee. However, water and land use practices have critically impaired the river and it was cited as one of America’s Most Endangered Rivers in 2015.

Over the past 15 years, the organization has broadened both the scope and geographic reach of its work as it applied lessons learned on the Harpeth to rivers and streams across the state. By seeking water quality solutions developed with diverse stakeholders, Harpeth Conservancy builds broad stewardship and shared responsibility for streams and rivers that are vital for the state’s economic well-being and quality of life.

Through the combination of auction items, corporate sponsorships and ticket sales, RIVER SWING is a rally for clean water and healthy ecosystems for rivers in Tennessee championed by the people who live here.
