The stars are beginning to align over Fish Creek in south Maplewood.  For over 20 years, the dream of preserving a 70-acre parcel of land south of Carver Road has been gathering momentum.  Now, the dream of preserving this parcel is within reach. Celebrate and discover the cultural and natural history of this beautiful new parcel overlooking the Mississippi. On the bluff top, visit with a peregrine falcon, bird watch with binoculars, and build a kite and fly it on site. Relive history with Fur Trader Brown, the Little Thunderbird Drum and Dance troupe, and stories from the Maplewood Historical Society. Don’t miss out on crafts, root beer ($2), scavenger hunts and great door prizes (including a bike)!  More
