The DNR is sponsoring Project AWARE again this year. The river trip from Mason City to Cedar Falls will start on June 14 and end June 21. A map of this year’s trip is here. Volunteers will spend one night at the famed Winnebago Scout Camp near Marble Rock.
AWARE is an acronym for A Watershed Awareness River Expedition. Volunteers spend a week, or as much time as they can contribute, cleaning up an Iowa River. A description is here.
