Waterkeeper Alliance, Chattahoochee Riverkeeper and Flint Riverkeeper hosted a VIP event, presented by Fonseca BIN 27 on Thursday, June 6, in Atlanta, GA to celebrate the launch of the North American Swim Guide mobile application -- a groundbreaking tool that will help protect everyone's right to clean water. Swim Guide is a free mobile application that will help beachgoers find their closest beaches, know at a glance which ones are safe for swimming, and share their love of beaches with friends. Laura Turner Seydel and Dr. Heather Richardson co­chaired this VIP Event that brought together nearly 200 guests including civil rights leader's Ambassador Andrew Young and Reverend Bernice King, daughter of the late Martin Luther King, Jr, board members, trustees and Waterkeepers from around the world. Vicki and Howard Palefsky hosted the event in their private home in the heart of Buckhead. NBC's The Voice Season 2 Top 10 Finalist Mathai wow the audience with songs from her latest EP, Girl Like Me. The event, held on the 45th anniversary of the death of Senator Robert F. Kennedy, paid tribute to the environmental work of his son, Bobby Kennedy Jr. After asking for a moment of silence in memory of Robert F. Kennedy, Co­Chair, Dr. Heather Richardson, said that "Bobby, like his father, is courageous, fearless, and willing, at every turn, to speak truth to power for what is right and just, for all life on our planet."
