UWEC Students
To make Canoes for a Cause important to students, students need to think about what rivers effect their lives. At the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, the Chippewa River runs through campus. The river is one of the reasons UWEC is so unique. Not many campuses have a river running through campus as the students can appreciate as they walk to class. In the summer, students spend some weekend afternoons floating down the Chippewa River on inner tubes. That is why I'm informing students about Canoes for a Cause.
