Here’s to another great season! The Cop House Fishing Crew’s 2026 season came to a close with our final trip to Voyageurs National Park. This was a first for our program, and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to wrap up the season!

Throughout the trip, we were fortunate to have fantastic weather and spent four nights camping on Kabetogama Lake. During our time in Voyageurs National Park, we took multiple day trips to explore different areas of the park, spent full days fishing, and continued learning valuable outdoor and life skills along the way.

It was an honor to spend the summer season with this incredible group. We are grateful for all the memories, and experiences we shared together.

A special thank you to the businesses and organizations that generously supported the Cop House Fishing Crew throughout the season: Scheels, Stop Light Bait, and the St. Cloud Optimist Club. Your support helped make these experiences possible for our crew, and we truly appreciate it!

🏕️ Women of Worth’s summer trip was unforgettable!! We ended our 2025-26 WOW program with a trip up to Breezy Point! The girls swam, hiked, paddle boarded, played lots of games by the camp fire! Many memories were made on this trip, as well as during our year together in this program!

These strong young women are off to school again and will come back to visit as mentors for the new incoming group of women of worth girls starting this fall!

We are so proud of you and love to see you growing into leaders in your community!
