Voyageurs Conservancy will connect 17,000 Minnesotans to the state's only national park through standards-aligned K-12 education, career-building fellowships, and enhanced programs that engage diverse audiences in the park's conservation.
Wilderness Inquiry will expand its work to provide a continuum of outdoor experiences for youth, adults, and families in communities across Minnesota by:
This year we propose to contract with a character named Jacques La Christian, who is portrayed by David Popilek, a French voyageur from the 1800's who will tell stories of the wilderness and provide exhibits of historic Minnesota.
We wish to bring entertainment to our local county fair that people might not otherwise be able to view. We would like to bring a cooking event with lefsa to show food of different nationalities.
We propose to use the Legacy grant funds to hire Homeward Bound Theatre Company's "Alfy's World of Robotic Puppets." These robotic puppets stroll around the fairgrounds and talk to the children about many agriculture-related topics.
