celebrating our clean lakes with fun outdoor activities and hands-on learning
about local watershed topics.
Saturday, June 2
11 AM - 4 PM
Phalen Regional Park, 1600 Phalen Dr, St. Paul, MN 55106
On the water: Join the Water Parade at 11 a.m. Throughout the day, enjoy the
lake from a canoe, kayak, sailboat or paddleboat, learn to fish, or participate
in a fishing contest.
In the park: The fun continues with live music and dance, water games,
climbing walls, a jump castle, native plant giveaways, Passport Odyssey with
great prizes, live animals, food vendors and lots more!
This year’s theme is “Follow the Flow,” a nod to Saint Paul’s largest connected
chain of lakes. The annual festival is presented by Ramsey-Washington Metro
Watershed District, which created a water trail map for the Phalen Chain and
has restored more than 100 native plant species along large areas of shoreline.
Additional WaterFest sponsors include the cities of Saint Paul, Maplewood,
Roseville, Little Canada, Shoreview, White Bear Lake, Landfall and North St.
Paul, Capitol Region Watershed District, Ramsey County, Metropolitan Council,
Barr Engineering, Minnesota Native Landscapes, Minnesota Water Well Association
and other partners.
