The history of the St. Croix River will be the featured topic during next week’s St. Croix River Historic Cruise, a fundraiser for the Washington County Historical Society.
The cruise, which will be 5:30-8 p.m. Tuesday, will be narrated by Stillwater Gazette columnist Angie Hong.
Hong will discuss historic points along the river, which “has been used as a main thoroughfare for centuries,” said Brent Peterson, the society’s executive director.
The fundraiser includes the river cruise, appetizers and a full cash bar. Tickets, which are $60 per person, must be purchased in advance.
Boarding begins at 5:30 p.m. at the Stillwater River Boats dock, located at 525 S. Main St., Stillwater. The boat leaves the dock at 6 p.m. and returns at 8 p.m.
