River Programs

Roll up your sleeves and join our community cleanups. Together, we've removed over 1,000 tons of trash from the river since 2001. These hands-on experiences turn volunteers into lifelong river advocates. 

Get to know the river as your classroom. Our place-based programs get children and adults onto the water, fostering curiosity and building reverence for this powerful force of nature. We don't just teach you about the river—we help you experience it.

From family-friendly catfishing lessons to the extreme challenge of the MR340, the world's longest non-stop paddling race, we offer ways to enjoy the river that build meaningful connections to this vital waterway.
