Collecting Stories from the River!
Have you gone rafting with Hatch in Grand Canyon?
Do you want to share your story?
We’re collecting STORIES FROM THE RIVER!
Many of our guests are so inspired by the beauty of the Canyon, and the uniqueness of their rafting and camping experience, they feel the creative urge to write about their adventures. We’ve been blessed to receive poems, short stories and even published books chronicling life-changing experiences rafting through Grand Canyon with Hatch.
We’re excited to bring back a series sharing our guests’ river stories in our blog.
Tell us your story in whatever format calls to you. Whether you went on a Hatch trip this season or 30 years ago or your parents went 50 years ago, we’d love to hear your tales!
Thanks for a great season! We can’t wait to hear from you!
As a bonus, here’s a haiku written by Joy Sprague inspired by her river trip in May of this year:
Canyon is calling
Whitewater churning inside
Rippling desires
