Description

For almost 50 years, River Bend Nature Center was operated successfully by the Racine YWCA, providing environmental education, outdoor recreation and pleasant memories for thousands of Racine County children, adults and families. Unfortunately, the YWCA needed to sell this precious natural resource in order to fund its core operations. Fortunately, Racine County stepped up and the property was purchased by the county under the condition that a non-profit corporation unrelated to the YWCA could continue River Bend.

River Bend Nature Center, Inc., is a [501(c)(3)] non-profit corporation formed to rescue River Bend and to continue and expand the mission of outdoor recreation and environmental education. Through a public-private partnership with Racine County, River Bend Nature Center, Inc., will ensure that this resource continues to be a secure and important part of the quality of life in southeast Wisconsin. Owned by the county and operated without tax dollars by RBNC, Inc., the center is self-sustaining through private support, program revenue, special events, and equipment and facilities rental.
