This issue of River Neighbors touches on some of the activities we’ve been up to in case you’ve been hibernating, and we give you some ideas for getting outside if you’re not. In addition, we’re highlighting some opportunities for you to get involved in your communities and help us make life in the Valley better. I hope you are enjoying River Neighbors. We’ve had a great response for the publication so far. I’m always humbled by the spirit of service our partners and neighbors have for this wonderful place we call home. At TVA our mission is service, and managing the Tennessee River system for the greatest public good is part of that mission. Thank you for sharing our passion for public lands and waters!
