The Cleanest River in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed

We are proud to have one of the cleanest waterways in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. Since 2009, we have worked tirelessly to clean the watershed, to educate our community, and to make sure that everyone can enjoy the river safely and responsibly. Jim Pfiffer is the founder of Chemung River Friends, and he believed that to make progress we had to "paddle together." Our current director, Liz Zilinski, continues to promote his vision of a community where everyone understands their special part in the work that we do.

Whether you are in favor of regular clean-ups of our river and her trails, teaching children and adults river and water safety, supplying local fire departments with river rescue training and supplies, bringing schools down to the water to learn about the river ecosystem in hands-on science programs, or you just want to make sure that we have outfitters available to provide kayaks, canoes, and waterboards for you and your friends and family, your donation will have a long-lasting, measurable impact with the Friends of the Chemung River Watershed.

For the most impact, please consider a recurring monthly donation. This allows us to better plan our programming schedules and purchase supplies on a regular basis.

For more information about the work that we do, visit our website, call us at 607-846-2242, e-mail us at director@chemungriverfriends.org, or visit our office in the heart of downtown Elmira, NY, at 111 N. Main Street, Suite 8. You can also visit us on Facebook to see our latest work in the community.

Thank you so much for helping to keep the Chemung River clean and accessible since 2009.
