La Crosse River Marsh Audio Trail Guides
The audio files here are guides to the La Crosse River Marsh and its trail system. They are the product of five Aquinas students who received a Youth Climate Action Fund (YCAF) grant from the city of La Crosse. The city received $50,000 from Bloomberg Philanthropies to fund, on a competitive basis, grant proposals to support young people with climate action project ideas. Each proposal required a mentor agency. That's where Friends of the Marsh came into the picture. These are audio files, click on them here to listen, or at the marsh trailheads access each file using your phone and the posted QR code.
