11th Annual Share the River Gorge Canoe Paddle and Ice Cream Social

Enjoy the River Gorge Committee's 11th Annual Ice Cream social at our beautiful river gorge! There will be free ice cream, free family canoe rides with the National Park Service and Wilderness Inquiry, and guided tours of the oak savanna restoration area, led by Friends of the Mississippi River Gorge Stewards.

In addition to tours, ice cream and canoe rides, learn about some organizations that do wonderful work on and around the river. You'll have a chance to discuss the projects they have going on and how you can get involved. These organizations include Friends of the Mississippi River, the Mississippi Watershed Management Organization, the Minneapolis Park and Rec Board, and Minneapolis Recycling and Compost.

The event is free, but donations are happily accepted to defray event costs.
