The River Talks: Restored Connection to a River in Recovery

From degradation to paddling destination, the St. Louis River Estuary is undergoing an inspiring transformation. Since the designation of the St. Louis River Estuary Area of Concern (AOC) in 1987, many partners have collaborated to clean up the river. The impact of this work is becoming clear, and the St. Louis River Estuary National Water Trail is proof of that change. Attendees learn about improved access to the water and future goals for helping (re)connect the community to this beautiful waterway with Kris Eilers, Executive Director at the St. Louis River Alliance.
