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. There is a revitalization within the river communities as well, including better access to the river, new trails, and hopes of restored relationships to the river.

Join the St. Louis River Alliance for a River Connection event. There will be a short presentation on the history of the river, current restoration projects underway, and an open discussion on what you hope to see along the river! Come let us know how you want to experience the St. Louis River and/or ask questions about the work happening in and along the water.
