For nearly four decades, thousands of community members, Tribal Nations, local organizations, businesses, scientists, and state and federal agencies have worked together to restore the St. Louis River Estuary. Today, that shared commitment continues as the final Area of Concern projects are underway. When these final projects are complete, it will result in one of the most successful restorations in the Great Lakes—and the St. Louis River Area of Concern is now on the verge of being delisted.
Join the St. Louis River Alliance for a special evening celebrating the people, partnerships, and projects that made this achievement possible.
Aboard the Vista Star, you’ll enjoy a guided tour of the harbor while viewing many of the underway and completed cleanup and restoration sites that helped bring the river back to life. From restored habitat to revitalized waterfronts, you’ll hear the stories behind the places that have shaped this remarkable recovery and learn how these efforts have created healthier ecosystems and expanded opportunities for recreation, wildlife, and community connections.
This event is free and open to all ages, but space is limited and advance registration is required. A light dinner will be served.
This event is highly anticipated and space is limited. If your plans change and you are no longer able to attend after registering, please email outreach@stlouisriver.org so we can open your spot to someone else. Thank you for helping us make room for as many participants as possible!
