“Thank you so much for the professional, interesting, 

and informative session. I applaud your efforts – 

excellent learning tool.” 

“There were six of us at my office that tuned in to this 

program. The Webcast is a very effective forum, and 

it’s nice to not have to travel!” 

“I have been in the watershed non-profit field for 

15 years. This was a very useful and concise 

presentation that I can share with my staff and 

volunteer directors. I plan to implement 

recommendations in our 2006 funding plan 

immediately.”
