Join us for an evening of celebration and connection on the river! Spend the evening dockside aboard the Betsey Northrup riverboat on the Mississippi River at Harriet Island. Enjoy tasty food and great company as we celebrate the volunteer program’s accomplishments, share highlights from the past year, and announce our 2024 Volunteer Award winners!

This evening is our way to show gratitude for your hard work and dedication to your national park. Staff from the National Park Service and Mississippi Park Connection will be there sharing stories, conversations, and laughter. Stop by to say hi or stay for the entire evening; we hope to see you there.

Register you and a guest today!

Note: the event will be aboard a riverboat, but we won't be setting off onto the river. The boat will be stationed dockside, allowing folks to come and go as they please. More folks can attend, regardless of what time they get off work in the evening or when they need to relieve the babysitter!
