The Great River Race funds Wilderness Inquiry's Canoemobile program that brings classroom learning outside, engages more than 15,000 Minnesota youth annually to improve school performance, cultivates a stewardship ethic, and creates pathways to pursue educational and career opportunities in the outdoors.
Every fall, corporate teams, friends, families and nonprofit organizations join the race at Hidden Falls Regional Park to raise $100,000 to address the achievement gap through place-based education.
As a volunteer, we can use your help in a wide variety of roles: from timekeeping, serving rolls and hauling boats, to cheering and greeting teams as they arrive, photography, ASL interpreting, lunch set-up, take-down, and more. Your help makes this event happen. We might even need an extra hand to race in our canoes!

Mission Statement
Wilderness Inquiry’s mission is to connect people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities to each other and the natural world through shared outdoor adventures.
Description
Through the medium of outdoor adventure travel, we inspire personal growth, enhanced awareness of the environment, and community integration. Our adventures encourage people to open themselves to new possibilities and opportunities.
Since 1978 we’ve directly served more than half a million individuals from all walks of life - diverse youth, individuals with differing abilities, and others who face barriers of use to public lands and waterways. Our programs such as Canoemobile, Gateway to Adventure, and Families Together help connect people to the outdoors and each other.
At Wilderness Inquiry, we believe that everyone belongs. We work to ensure this belief holds true in our workplace, in our community, and in the outdoors.
