This is one of SWTU’s most important partner organizations, and their big all-day event is Saturday, February 8, 2019, at American Family Insurance – the same place as our Icebreaker.
Bob Clouser (!) will be their guest speaker and they also have great activities, prizes, vendors, etc.
If you need another reason to attend, our own esteemed Jim Hess is receiving the Lee and Joan Wulff Award, their highest honor! The presentation to Jim will be at about 3 p.m., just prior to Bob Clouser’s second presentation.
Their support of SWTU, stream restoration, and conservation education has been phenomenal for many years … but they can only continue if their fund-raisers succeed.
Learn more at their website and please plan to attend.
