Minnesotans are excited about the pick of Tim Walz as Kamala Harris’ running mate - and we’re proud to say he’s a Boundary Waters paddler!
I first met then-Congressman Walz over 15 years ago, and I remember him telling me about the solo wilderness canoe trips he enjoyed taking.
Sam Chadwick (at the time a staffer with Environment America) and then-Congressman Tim Walz discussing climate and clean water issues.
As a Congressman and then Governor of Minnesota, our team and supporters have interacted with and met Walz a lot over the years, here's a few pictures!
Kids for the Boundary Waters founder Joseph Goldstein with then-Congressman Walz looking at a Boundary Waters photo book.
Large Save the Boundary Waters group meeting with then-Congressman Walz during one of our frequent Washington DC “fly-ins” with Boundary Waters community members and business owners. Group includes authors, adventurers, and guides Amy and Dave Freeman, Wenonah Canoe owner Mike Cichanowski, and others.
Stay tuned and remember to get out and “vote the Boundary Waters” this election. More information and volunteer opportunities can be found through our sister organization Boundary Waters Action Fund.
