The Friends of the Shiawassee River is one of many organizations throughout the watershed that has joined a collaborative effort to form the Shiawassee River Watershed Coalition.  Thanks to the work done by the SRWC, an 88 mile stretch of the Shiawassee River was designated a State Water Trail in December of 2018 and is in the process of designation to become a National Water Trail.
