River Action's E-Tour brings new technology to the riverfront and creates opportunities to engage new audiences. QR Codes and web addresses have replaced the phone numbers from River Action’s Audio Tour. 
Check out the 2020 'Explore the River Series'
Explore the river this summer through a program which teaches participants first-hand about the wildlife, history, culture and geology of the Mississippi River and the Quad Cities through Channel Cat Talks and Riverine Walks, May 26 through August 29.
Channel Cat Talks leave from the Riverbend Commons, 2951 E River Dr, Moline, IL, at 9AM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Riverine Walks begin at 6:30PM on Wednesdays and 9AM on Saturdays.
Join us in learning about the unique nature and culture of the Quad Cities. Check out our schedule below and register online.
We'd like to extend a special thanks to to our sponsors this year: Illinois Humanities, Humanities Iowa, Quad City Times, MetroLINK, Mancomm, Greg & Judy Gackle and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources.
