About this organization
Mission
To advocate for the sustainable use of the Red River of the North
About
We coordinate efforts in conservation, safety, recreation, riparian restoration and water quality among local agencies in the Fargo, North Dakota - Moorhead, Minnesota region. We create programs and events for current and future leaders designed to build a sound foundation for science-based decision making. One of the ways we promote stewardship is to work with over 1000 volunteers annually to conduct our Storm Drain Marking Program, plant trees and shrubs in the degraded riparian area, conduct water quality monitoring, pick up garbage in and along the river and more. We teach people to use the river safely through our adult and youth fishing clinics, Paddling Excursions, and Race the Red canoe and kayak races as it's been proven in other communities that people use a resource they take better care of it. We have made significant progress in helping the community understand the value and importance of the Red River. The organization has a long history of collaborative efforts with a wide range of partnering agencies including local, state and federal government agencies, schools, business and other NGOs.
