We can't wait to see you at our annual fall event, Defending True North. Here at MCEA, “true north” isn’t a direction but a set of values that we share with supporters like you. Together, we stand up in courtrooms, the legislature and boardrooms, all to defend Minnesota’s environment. This year we're holding ground, not giving an inch to those who want to chip away at our state's hard-won protections. Let's strategize and look forward to a healthier, thriving future!

We hope to see you Sunday, October 5th, 2025 at the beautiful Leopold's Mississippi Gardens for our annual fall event, Defending True North.

Leopold's Mississippi Garden is a picturesque rolling lawn on the shores of the Mississippi River. We'll gather rain or shine: while we're planning to be outdoors, indoor space is also reserved.  MCEA is committed to providing accessible and inclusive events. We will provide golf carts for transportation of guests as needed. Please contact semerich@mncenter.org if you have accessibility requests.

MCEA is grateful for the Champions and Co-Hosts who make this event possible!
