LGN Sponsors Wilderness Inquiry Great River Race

A team of LGN attorneys, government relations professionals, and close family members paddled a 24-foot canoe and raced down the Mississippi River on Saturday. The more than 5-mile canoe race was part of Wilderness Inquiry’s annual Great River Race. The event raised over $190,000 to fund outdoor opportunities for youth and families across Minnesota and beyond.

Every fall, Wilderness Inquiry brings together hundreds of youth, paddlers, sponsors, volunteers, and community members to raise support and awareness for Canoemobile, a program to close the opportunity gap and create equitable pathways into the outdoors for youth of all backgrounds and abilities. The Canoemobile program works with more than 25,000 youth annually through a “floating classroom” to help improve school performance, cultivate a stewardship ethic, and create pathways to higher education and career opportunities in the outdoors.
