Don't miss what promises to be a great conference this Earth Day weekend in Oshkosh.
Scholarships are still available to cover registration costs.
This gathering of Wisconsin grassroots conservationists will be a great opportunity to network with other folks who are doing river and land conservation work around the state. Conference sessions will cover many useful topics important to running a successful organization, such as recruiting Board members, raising money through grants, foundations and corporations, and getting your story out to the media. Other sessions will cover aspects of doing river and land conservation work, including managing stormwater runoff, using zoning effectively, and mounting a dam removal campaign. Please note there will also be a pre-conference workshop on how citizen organizations can use the Clean Water Act to protect their watershed. Keynote speakers at the conference will include Senator Gaylord Nelson, Earth Day founder, and Tim Palmer, renowned environmental author.
