Spring is on the way, and along with the snow melting, the birds will begin chirping and hooting. Many forms of wildlife call the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway home, including the Saw-whet Owl. Learn more about this fascinating bird, while enjoying local brews at Lift Bridge Brewery.

The event is one of many in 2018 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway, which became a national park with the passage of the Wild & Scenic Rivers Act in 1968. The National Park Service and St. Croix River Association will host this event and will also be on hand to answer your questions and help plan your next trip to the Riverway.
