Coon Rapids Middle School

Coon Rapids, MN

It is sometimes hard for people here in Minnesota, "the land of 10,000 lakes", to imagine a place parched and dry, with no clean water for miles and miles. In fact, the great Mississippi River flows right through our town, and our school is named after all the raccoons that live and fish from the rocky rapids there. But after reading a new book by Barbara Park called The Long Walk For Water, our Eco-Teens Club wanted to help those former Lost Boys of Sudan bring clean drinking water to their homeland, South Sudan
