In this the 100th year of the Hennepin Canal - we would like you to share your fondest times on the Hennepin Canal, or as some of the older folks say the Illinois and Mississippi Canal.

DeAnna (Heuer) Foran, formerly of Wyanet and artist of the lock bridge on our 100th logo

My favorite memory - "When we were little had Hot Dog Picnics under the lift bridge before there were picnic tables.  I also learned how to swim on the canal"
