In December 2008, dozens of watershed leaders from across the country descended into Nashville, TN for a 3 day conference with attention on two areas: Organizational Development: Training for Trainers and Warming Watersheds: Training for Sustainable Water Supplies. This three-day program combined River Network's Watershed Support Network and Saving Water Saving Energy programs to create the opportunity for education, inspiration and networking.

What are you? A glutton for happiness? A fool for fun? I mean, we gave you a list of wonderful opportunities - a long list, we might add - and yet...you want MORE? Good on you mate! You clearly are our people.

River Network would like to extend a special thanks to Lisa Hansen, who provided endless hours - all with a smile (at least, we like to think she was smiling) - organizing our River Rally 2009 Field Trips.

 

River Rally Field Trips

Field Trips will take place Friday - Monday. Please note days/times below. To help cover the cost of rentals, transportation, logistics - and in some cases - food, field trips do cost extra. And, because we must reserve certain services in advance, your field trip fees are non-refundable. That means: after May 20th, we can not reimburse any field-trip fees you may have paid. Trust me: it's not because we're pocketing the funds and heading to Cabos. 

Help us support local groups in your backyard and across the country in protecting and restoring our waterways!
