NORTH CONWAY — About 50 of the state’s outdoor leaders took to the sunny but rain-swollen Saco River for a six-mile paddle through quick water on Wednesday, then had dinner and networked on a beach along its banks around a fire pit.

The event was set up by Granite Outdoor Alliance, whose mission is to sustainably grow the outdoor economy in New Hampshire. It included an opportunity for many to meet the state’s new outdoor czar for the first time.
