Our topic is “Upper Mississippi River Refuge Centennial”. Weather permitting, come prepared for an early spring hike in the Refuge after the meeting.
Program Information:
A century ago, a monumental movement of citizens petitioned Congress to create the largest "wildlife preserve" ever in order to save their favorite upper Mississippi River backwaters from being drained and converted to farmland.
Presenter Information:
Hallie Schulz has worked at the US Fish and Wildlife Service for 20 years as a “Refuge Ranger” at various sites and has been with the Upper Miss. River Refuge for 8 years. Her passion is all about connecting visitors with the resource and encouraging recreation on our public lands.
