Description

Minnesota and Wisconsin educators, this workshop on the water is for you! We want to get you on the river this summer, rediscovering your local National Park, the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway.

Join the St. Croix River Association (SCRA), the official non-profit partner of the Riverway and our field trip partners for this FUN, hands-on workshop that will inspire you to include Riverway and watershed education as part of your annual curriculum cycle. Let us help you with the curriculum and materials!

Cost: Free, except you will need to pay for a MN State Parks Day Pass ($7)
