Do you have a vision for the future of the Fox River? Join the Friends of the Fox River from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 23, for a sunset cruise on one of the St. Charles paddlewheel boats.

This “Sunset Vision Cruise” is about more than enjoying the scenic beauty of the river, however. The Friends of the Fox seek to bring together stakeholders to discuss their viewpoints for the future of the Fox River and its watershed — which is intended to inspire a common agreement about what the river needs, and to find new ways to work together for a healthier and more vibrant Fox River watershed.

Who should attend?

  • Local and state elected officials
  • Government agency staff
  • Environmental partner groups
  • Chambers of commerce representatives
  • Other community leaders wanting to present a vision for the Fox.

Tickets for the Sunset Vision Cruise are $35 per person (or $30 for FOFR members) and can be ordered online here.

Be inspired! Glimpse the future! Join the Friends of the Fox for this unique event.
