After experiencing the natural beauty and learning about the cultural history of St. Croix National Scenic Riverway, many people are drawn to find ways to learn more about what they have seen or get involved in supporting the park. 

Stop by one of the two Visitor Centers in the Park to browse the books and merchandise that will help you learn more about the natural and cultural heritage of the area.  Buy a souvenir to remember your trip to the Riverway.  Profits from the bookstore help benefit the park.  Learn more about the Bookstore by clicking on the link.

Check into our Volunteer In Park program to put your skills to work directly in the Park. Did you know that during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2005, over 659 people and groups volunteered 8,008 hours to park operations and programs in St. Croix National Scenic Riverway? There are a wide array of volunteer jobs that range from a few hours to a regular commitment.

Did You Know?
Between 1850 and 1889 log jams occurred at angle rock on the St. Croix River between Minnesota and Wisconsin, where the river bends within a rocky gorge. In 1886 over 150 million board feet of logs jammed creating a tourist attraction. Today St. Croix NSR attracts tourists for its scenic beauty.
