Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Attendees will learn the history and all aspects of fishing in the Minnesota River. They will learn the present environmental status of the river and how to become better stewards of it. Anecdotal responses will be collected.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We had positive verbal feedback from nearly all people in attendance. Everyone learned many things about the river that they did not know prior to the program. Most enjoyable were the excellent photographs displayed on screen of the various unusual species living in the river.
