The Alliance is a network of citizens, public agencies and
private organizations that communicate the benefits of an ecologically healthy
Minnesota River Watershed to others and who actively work toward its
improvement and protection.

Q: How does the Alliance operate?
A: As an ad hoc, volunteer group of whoever shows up. No dues, no membership, no paid staff, no home office. We have multiple leaders from all over the watershed and we communicate through e-mail and a web-based bulletin board. We will have an action focus based as much as possible on a consent agenda devised by those who come to Alliance meetings.
Our vision for the Minnesota River Watershed is an engaged
citizenry and an informed network of decision makers who take action to bring
about a vibrant prairie lakes and rivers environment for the people who live
and work in the Minnesota River Watershed. We envision a future for the
Watershed where the economics of the region are balanced with restoration and
enhancement of its natural resources, benefiting current and future generations
– down to the Seventh Generation.
Q: What is this National Blueways Nomination all
about?
A: See the previous post!
