River Rally
September 9, 2023

Help support the preservation, protection and appreciation of our river with Community Thread’s River Rally: St. Croix River Clean Up. The scenic St. Croix River is where we go to canoe, fish, swim, or simply take in the view. Community Thread’s River Rally engages local volunteers who love the river and surrounding parks and paths and is open to volunteers age 14 and older.
In 2022, River Rally added several miles of the St. Croix River to the task list, as well as including areas of Brown’s Creek Trail. Come be part of an incredible day of service and keep our Valley clean and safe for all to enjoy!
2023 River Rally: September 9, 2023 from 9am – 12pm

The St. Croix River is such a precious resource, and it’s in our backyard. I love being able to spend a few hours enjoying its beauty while helping to preserve it so others will be able to enjoy it as well.
