The Problem
We would like to provide easier access to our local river, for floating and otherwise interacting with the wildlife.
Our Plan
We have created a "ferryboat" shaped trolley to carry people to the put in point on our local river. We would like to enhance the trolley.

Here is how the project went:
We purchased a new sound system for the NFO MINNOW, to communicate and inform the folks using the shuttle service. It works fantastic!
Through this project I/we learned:
Tourists preparing to enjoy a river trip, also enjoy learning about the river.....
What I/we might change:
Possibly add lighting as well.
My/our favorite part of this project was:
Having our guests ask questions about the River enviornment as they exit the shuttle.
Some tips, tricks or fun facts about the project:
As with most urban nature areas, many do not know they exist, and are almost always incredibly excited to learn that it even exists inside our city limits.....
