Riverway Fund

The recently endowed St. Croix National Scenic Riverway Fund is designated to enhance and preserve the St. Croix and Namekagon Rivers, supporting projects that maintain and improve water quality, bring the Rivers' cultural heritage to life, enhance recreational opportunities or engage young people, sparking their appreciation for the River's future.

By supporting the Fund with your contribution, you help protect the Rivers today and enrich our region's most cherished resources for generations to come.

The St. Croix Valley Foundation is a community foundation dedicated to building lasting resources that serve the people, the river, and the natural beauty of the St. Croix Valley and the surrounding region. Each year the St. Croix Valley Foundation works with donors, nonprofit organizations and other partners to protect the Rivers, enhance the local community character and bring positive results to the Valley. As a 501(c)(3) organization, all gifts are tax deductible.

Water scorpions use their tails or siphons as a a "snorkel" thrusting it up through the surface film on the water to the air above. Their legs are not much use in swimming, so most water scorpions spend life near the shoreline.
