As the candidates bombard us with snarky ads and fundraising requests (and it’s only September!), it’s hard to think past the elections to the business of getting things done.

The 4th Annual River Alliance Online Auction is open for business...and bidding. Our goal this year is to raise $10,000 to support our programs and efforts to save Wisconsin's rivers.

Special thanks to this year’s auction sponsors, Inter-Fluve Inc. and Capital Newspapers, for their generous support.
Congratulations to stream monitoring coordinator Chris Clayton and his wife Nicki on the birth of Maeve Isabel. She joined us on August 16, 19 inches long and weighing in at 6 pounds 12 ounces. Maeve is the fourth addition to the River Alliance family in the span of one year – we think we’re done for now, unless there’s something in the water……
