Join us for a presentation by Sharon Stiteler, a local author and bird expert known online and on air as The Birdchick. She worked on the Mississippi River as a park ranger for 13 years doing bird surveys, documenting the metro heron rookeries and eagle nests and flying over it for fall migratory bird surveys.
The Sacred Water Shared Future campaign is powered by you! The heart of this centennial celebration is the incredible variety of events planned and hosted by our partners — community groups, nonprofits, businesses, schools, and individuals who feel a connection to the Mississippi River.
We do not host events ourselves; instead, we serve as a central hub for river-focused activities happening across the Twin Cities throughout 2026.
