Pints for a Purpose: St. Croix River Association

Experience it. Protect it. Forever. This is the guiding principal of the St. Croix River Association, our first October Pints for a Purpose partner. Make sure to join us on Thursday, October 11th, for a night of National Park Trivia to celebrate the 50th anniversary of both the Saint Croix National Scenic Riverway and the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act.

All night long, we’ll donate $1 from every pint, flight, bottle, and growler of beer purchased back the the St. Croix River Association to assist with their efforts in land conservation, water quality protection, and celebration of this incredible river corridor and watershed.

About the St. Croix River Association:
Established in 1911, the St. Croix River Association “has been from the beginning a grassroots affair, linked inseparably to the St. Croix River itself. Starting as an informal organization, it evolved slowly out of the basic, direct interests of people living along the banks of the border river between Minnesota and Wisconsin. Many of the association’s specific goals have changed…and some of its early objectives now seem ludicrous. But the idea of saving the St. Croix for the people of both states has remained a constant.” From: Saving the River – St. Croix River Association, 1911-2001

Today, nearly a century later, the St. Croix River Association (SCRA) has evolved from an informal organization of mostly river valley residents, into a formal nonprofit organization of people and organizations advocating for conservation throughout the watershed.
