Join us at Coldwater Spring, a beautiful oak savanna prairie near the Mississippi River, for this special winter RAVE (River Action Volunteer Event). Help with invasive plant management, followed by a guided hike to the river with a park ranger. We may turn this into a snowshoe hike, weather permitting!River Action Volunteer Events are a fun way to discover your river, while acting as a steward on behalf of this beautiful national park right in our backyard. All RAVEs couple a recreational activity with restoration a restoration project. Explore the river, learn about significant wildlife and cultural features, and do some good!
RAVEs are great for adults and kids over 10 years old. No experience needed. This is a free event for volunteers - your only ticket is your service to the river!
