Leading the Way for Those Protecting Our Precious Waterways

Minnesota Waters is a statewide 501(c) 3 non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and improving the health of our state’s lakes and rivers, by engaging and empowering citizens, agencies and policymakers.  Minnesota Waters provides the training, connections and support to empower citizens to take action to save our lakes and rivers.

Celebrate the citizens and groups who have achieved great things for their lake or river at RiverNight 2010. Minnesota Folk Artist Ann Reed will kick-off the award ceremony and green business author Kim Carlson will be our keynote speaker. Following the awards presentation, we’ll top off the night with great food, great company, and a great 2 ½ hour sunset cruise down the Mighty Mississippi River on the Jonathan Padelford riverboat!  More Information
