River Wranglers helps youth and families explore, conserve and celebrate our rivers through community programs, projects, and hands-on education. Our vision is to excite youth and their families by deepening their understanding of and commitment to watershed, rivers and streams that sustain life for generations to come. River Wranglers focuses on the Carson and Truckee watersheds located in central Nevada.
Hands-on Education & Mentoring for Youth
Through a partnership developed with local schools, River Wranglers involves kids in hands-on education where they learn about the river while involved in meaningful projects and activities. A mentoring program, pairing high school students with 4th graders from local elementary schools, gives high school students the opportunity to learn through teaching, while also modeling responsible stewardship of natural resources for elementary-aged youth.
