Formed in 2009 by a diverse group of organizations and individuals, the Grand Canyon River Heritage Coalition, Inc. (GCRHC) is taking on the challenge of sharing Grand Canyon’s remarkable collection of rivercraft, artifacts and river lore with the world. The Coalition’s main goal is to raise tax-deductible funds for project advocacy – public outreach tools designed to promote the development of a state-of-the-art Grand Canyon River Heritage Museum at the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park.
Each member organization of the Coalition holds a unique stake in the canyon’s river heritage and brings a valuable perspective to the project, yet we are united by our passionate desire to preserve the essence of the Colorado River experience – its past, present, and future. At present the Coalition includes:
Grand Canyon Private Boaters Association
Grand Canyon River Guides, Inc.
Grand Canyon River Outfitters Association
Grand Canyon River Runners Association
Grand Canyon Trust
National Trust for Historic Preservation
The Grand Canyon River Heritage Coalition, Inc. is working hard with our partners, the National Park Service and the Grand Canyon Association, to make this exciting vision of a Grand Canyon River Heritage Museum a reality.
