Organizing Committee Chair Sara Squires Jones said, “That song you’ve been polishing: now’s the time! If you are not musically inclined you can still become a sponsor to help us clean up our local waterways.”

The Eighth Annual Finals will be held at the WWALS River Revue, an indoor fundraising dinner, to benefit WWALS Watershed Coalition, with an evening of food, drink, speakers from Georgia and Florida, a silent auction, the music of a headliner and the Songwriting Contest Finalists. That’s 5-9 PM, Saturday, September 6, 2025, at the Turner Center for the Arts in Valdosta, Georgia.

Tickets are $65 each.

We work for water trails, solar power, and Right to Clean Water, with growing engagement for youth and marginalized communities.” Continue reading →
