why just look... or 60 years, there’s been one name synonymous with Delaware River adventure: Lander’s River Trips. Every one of those years, thousands of visitors have taken to the crystal-clear waters via the Lander family’s and staff’s legendary hospitality. Chalk it up to a Boy Scout-turned-electrician who fell in love with the Delaware. “His heart was in Narrowsburg,” says Rick Lander of his dad, Bob. A New York City boy, Bob was originally introduced to the area through the Ten Mile River Boy Scout reservation, where he first arrived as a Scout, then returned as an em-

ployee. In 1955, Bob bought the Ten Mile River Motel – then an oversized bungalow – and turned it into a rustic retreat, complete with pool, along Route 97. Wife Joan became the cook, among many other roles. “They were a great team,” adds Lisa, Rick’s wife and – just like Joan – a partner in the business. Soon after, Bob and Joan realized the opportunity that awaited on the nearby Delaware River – one day to become a National Park. “He handled the canoeing for the Boy

when you can experience? The Delaware River is a wonderland of sights, sounds and smells, and you can enjoy it the way it’s always been experienced: by raft! The Roebling Bridge (left) actually once carried boats OVER the Delaware! J U LY / A U G U S T 2 0 1 6

Scouts,” recalls Rick. “There were tens of thousands of Scouts in the summer.” Just 10 canoes launched the Lander’s River Trips we know today, and while Bob and Joan have passed on, Rick and Lisa maintain the family tradition. “And we’ll take the third generation on, no doubt,” says Lisa, who worked for Bob before she even met and married Rick 34 years ago. During their tenure, Rick and Lisa have grown Lander’s to encompass more than 70 miles of the Delaware between Hancock and Port Jervis, NY, featuring eight launch sites, three campgrounds, a restaurant and a gas station.

“We can serve all types of adventure-seekers, from the rapids-runners to fishermen,” Lisa explains of a season that spans April to Columbus Day. During the peak of the summer, Lander’s employs upwards of 100 people – from teenagers on their first jobs to professionals who have become guests’ favorite faces. “Our biggest success – and the reason we excel – is our employees,” nods Rick. And that brings guests back again and again – from generation to generation. “We want people to love the river like we do,” says Lisa. “We can give them an experience they can’t find just anywhere.”

reat yourself to the River House, one of the region’s cutest – and most original – downtown shops. The couple behind River House’s counter embody the store’s varied, talentoriented ethos. Ever eager to showcase local artists and producers, proprietors Alex Johnson and Daryl Kroken also make what they sell. “We have the ability to design and execute,” Daryl says. “That’s our brand.” And so this is far more than a shop – it’s a workshop, where tired furnishings and castoff clothing are reborn. Chief amongst their creations are teddy bears whose bodies are composed of a loved one’s favorite sweaters. Indeed, Teddy ReBear has become their most popular endeavor. “We were invited recently to do a popup shop at Pottery Barn in Lincoln Center,” Alex relates. “It was a very heady experience!” adds Daryl. They hope to expand their Kauneonga Lake presence into a veritable teddy bear factory, but you need not wait to enjoy that particular delight of watching them work in the open area behind the counter. The duo’s teddy bears and handmade oven mitts are sprinkled throughout the retail area of the shop, sharing space alongside the works of 23 skilled local artisans.
