Friends Groups provide local citizens with opportunities to support their parks, lands, waters, and resources. They lead projects which provide tens of thousands of hours of volunteer stewardship work in the Lake Superior basin each year. Join Alex Faber, Executive Director of the Superior Rivers Watershed Association, as she interviews leaders of Friends Groups that support the Lake Superior Reserve, Apostle Islands National Lakeshore, the North Pikes Creek Wetlands, and the Gile Flowage to discuss how they involve citizens in stewardship efforts to benefit people, land and water.
