Democracy: Conservation's Most Powerful Tool
Wisconsin is in the eye of a political storm, and we know most folks are getting pretty sick and tired of all the ads and hype. It is easy to lose track of what is at stake when candidates are slinging so much mud. The River Alliance simply asks you to think about the resources we all value when you head to the polls and to make sure that you remind your friends and family to do the same.

Fools Flotilla To Set Sail on Sunday, June 10
 HEAR YE! HEAR YE! Let it be declared that on this day of Sunday the tenth of June there will take place upon that good water known as the Yahara, a grand flotilla of fools. Verily will those vessels known sometimes as "canoes" be adorned by all good gentlemen and ladies who would care to join this water-borne parade to attend the faire at Waterfront on the shores of Lake Monona.
Costume up yourselves, dress up your boat, your kids and the dog too. Float from the dam at Lake Mendota to Yahara Place Park on Yahara Place, site of the Festival. Prizes awarded for the most foolish of fools among you. All are welcome to participate in the Yahara River Canoe Race at 12 noon.
What: Fools Flotilla
Where: Tenney Park, parking lot along Thornton Avenue just below the Sherman Street bridge (not the ice skating parking lot).
When: Sunday, June 10th, meet at 9:30am, in the water by 10:30am
Cost: your willingness to be frivolous and foolish amongst fellow river revelers
Details: Arrive at Tenney with your boats and bodies already decorated or with decorations in hand.
