Welcome inaugural Gorge sponsors

FMR is pleased to welcome the first slate of local business sponsors for the popular Mississippi River Gorge Stewards Program. The one and only true gorge along the entire length of the Mississippi River is a national and regional asset that runs through several neighborhoods in Minneapolis and Saint Paul. FMR works with citizens, neighborhood groups and park agencies to recruit, train, and engage hundreds of volunteers and program participants in the gorge each year. Since many volunteers are from the area, we hope they will consider our sponsors when they shop locally. Please visit their web sites for more information.

Sustaining Sponsors ($500)

• Aveda Corporation
• Mother Earth Gardens

Supporting Sponsors ($250)

Gorge Stewards sponsorship opportunities are still available for 2008. For more information or to receive a sponsorship proposal, please contact Irene Jones at 651-222-2193 x11 or through our contact form.
