During this presentation local historians and researchers, Heidi and Gina, discussed the history of the St. Louis River and Estuary, including early inhabitants, explorers, industrialization, and the 1970's cleanup efforts and formation of WLSSD. The history of the River is fascinating and so many people have played a part in renewing what was once a devastating situation. Though there is still much work to be done, we are making strides and can celebrate a cleaner river with the St. Louis River Estuary National Water Trail and all of the projects and progress happening in the St. Louis River Area of Concern.

Join the St. Louis River Alliance for our 2022 Annual Membership Meeting with special programming by Margie Menzies 'Birding on the National Water Trail'.

This event will be held via zoom on Wednesday, April 27 from 7-8:30 p.m. Free and open to the public, though you must register.

You don't have to be a Member to attend the Membership Meeting!

Due to COVID-19, we feel it is in the best interest of our staff, volunteers and supporters to cancel this years 2020 St. Louis River Alliance Annual Fall Colors Train Ride Fundraiser. We hope you find your own way to enjoy the fall colors of the Northland this year, staying safe and healthy as you do so. The Alliance is still collecting donations and memberships, we appreciate your support at any level! Other future events are still pending, please stay connected by following our Facebook page, or signing up for our eNewsletter for updates.

The St. Louis River Alliance is sad to share that the 2020 SLRA Annual Canoe Trip is cancelled. Due to COVID-19, we feel it is unsafe to gather 50-80 individuals at this time. We are hoping to create a virtual alternative, one that encourages folks to still get out and around the River.

Since many of our St. Louis River Alliance events had been cancelled or postponed due to COVID-19, we decided it was a good idea to host a fun, casual Virtual SLRA Art Show to remind people of the beauty in our backyard. Here are photographs, paintings, and mixed-media works inspired by the St. Louis River, Lake Superior and the great Northwoods! Thank you to everyone who participated. The Virtual SLRA Art Show began on April 13th and went until the 22nd.
