Aerial view of the Mississippi River at Red Wing Minnesota showing the town of Red Wing on the shoreline including a large marina, and large grain elevators.  Green forests surround the town on both sides of the river and the islands and backwaters and Lake Pepin are apparent in the distance downstream.

Join us on the waters of the Mississippi River in beautiful downtown Red Wing, Minnesota on March 20-23, 2023!

The Minnesota Team is excited and invites you to gather at the Historic St. James Hotel, family owned since 1875. The week will offer many opportunities to connect with colleagues, learn about exciting projects & research going on, and truly connect with the river and many historic attractions in the area.

The meeting, mixer and banquet will be held at the St. James Hotel. You will hear from keynote speakers throughout the week and take part in the Tech Section meetings on Monday and Tuesday. Optional field trips/tours will be offered to explore a variety of experiences in the area.

Red Wing is home of the Red Wing Shoe Company and not far from the National Eagle Center.
